How can I determine which WM and/or desktop/UI library is being used

$

I want to start theming/tweaking the appearance of my Ubuntu 22.04 installation. I have activated LXQt and added a mac-lookalike theme JML_McOS in the window manager. At the moment my display manager is sddm and the window manager is xfwm4

This results in some windows getting the borders and title appearance that I expect (with the 3 colored dots at the top-left), but some are shown quite differently, for example the Window Manager dialog where I selected the Theme...Before diving deeper into theming the window contents (colors, button look etc.), I'd first like to get all window decorations to look similar.

There's probably some other UI libraries / handlers in play here, but I am at a loss how to determine who's using what (I've heard of GTK 2 and GTK 3, but do not know if/how these impact my system at the moment.

Pointers to tutorials or explainers that deal with theming of window decorations are appreciated.
