Gallery CSS is a simple and responsive CSS-only gallery with a lightbox feature. It can be easily installed on MXLinux Latest by following the steps outlined below:
Before proceeding with the installation, ensure that:
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T or searching for "Terminal" in the application menu.
Update the package list by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update
Install Git, which is required to download the Gallery CSS files, by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install git
Create a new directory for the Gallery CSS files by running the following command:
mkdir gallery-css
This will create a new directory called gallery-css in the current working directory.
Change into the new directory by running the following command:
cd gallery-css
Download the Gallery CSS files from the official Github repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/benschwarz/gallery-css.git
This will download the latest version of Gallery CSS in a folder called gallery-css inside the gallery-css directory we created earlier.
Copy the gallery.css file from the gallery-css folder into your MXLinux Latest file system by running the following command:
sudo cp gallery-css/gallery.css /usr/share/themes/
This command will copy the gallery.css file to the /usr/share/themes/ directory.
To verify that Gallery CSS has been successfully installed, open any HTML file and include the following line in the head tag:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/usr/share/themes/gallery.css">
Save the file and open it in a web browser. You should see your images displayed in a simple and responsive gallery with a lightbox feature.
