Fedora
Fedora is one of the leading Linux distributions known for its focus on innovation, openness, and upstream contributions. It is designed to deliver the latest features of the Linux ecosystem while maintaining a strong balance between stability and usability.
Fedora comes in multiple editions tailored for different use cases: Fedora Workstation for desktops, Fedora Server for server environments, Fedora IoT for embedded devices, and Fedora Silverblue for an immutable desktop experience. This modularity makes it a versatile platform for developers, sysadmins, and enthusiasts alike.
The distribution follows a roughly six-month release cycle, ensuring users get access to the newest technologies such as the latest Linux kernel, GNOME desktop, systemd, PipeWire, and Wayland display server. As a community-driven project sponsored by Red Hat, Fedora often serves as a proving ground for features that eventually appear in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
Fedora strictly adheres to the principles of free and open-source software, offering a fully legal and transparent environment for development, research, and everyday computing. It’s a preferred choice for those who want a modern, secure, and forward-looking Linux experience.
