Welcome to the Fedora Playground!

Fedora 41 — Red Hat’s upstream Linux with the latest kernel and tooling. If it works in Fedora today, it lands in RHEL tomorrow.

Tip: Fedora uses dnf as its package manager (successor to yum). Run dnf install -y <package> to add tools.

What’s Pre-installed

Shell: Bash, GNU coreutils
Package manager: dnf
Extras: vim, nano, curl, wget (installed on first connect)

Quick Start

uname -a
cat /etc/os-release
dnf install -y git curl wget

Common Workflows

# Package management
dnf search nginx
dnf info nginx
dnf install -y nginx
dnf remove nginx
dnf update

# RPM operations
rpm -qa | grep curl
rpm -qi curl
rpm -ql curl   # list files in package

# Manage services (limited in container)
systemctl list-units --type=service

Advanced Tips

# List available package groups
dnf group list
dnf group install "Development Tools"

# Enable Fedora COPR repos (community)
dnf copr enable <user>/<repo>

# Show transaction history
dnf history list
dnf history info <id>

Session Notes

Session lasts 1 hour.
Fedora uses dnf — same as RHEL 8+, AlmaLinux, and Rocky Linux.
