OSX-like window decoration for KDE Plasma written in C++

In order to install the theme and add it to your decorations do the following:

git clone https://github.com/jomada/SierraBreeze
cd SierraBreeze
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DKDE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF -DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=ON
sudo make install

To avoid logging out, issue

kwin_x11 --replace &

That is it! Your new decoration theme should appear in Settings → Application Style → Window Decorations.
