About
Fedora Linux is an open-source operating system developed by the Fedora Project that serves as the upstream community distribution for Red Hat Enterprise 
Linux.
It delivers rapid release cycles with early access to new Linux kernel versions and system components, uses the DNF package manager with RPM packages, enforces security through SELinux, ships Fedora Workstation with the GNOME desktop on Wayland by default, and uses Btrfs as the default filesystem in recent releases.
