About GNOME Tweaks

GNOME Tweaks exposes settings that the standard GNOME Settings app leaves out. You can change fonts and font scaling, pick themes, and adjust how windows and title bar buttons behave.

It is maintained by the GNOME project on its own GitLab and is usually available from Linux distribution package managers. It suits GNOME users who want finer control over the look and behaviour of their desktop.
