Progress so far
See also the list of completed Workstation tasks for more details, bug/RFE references, etc.
- Software tool. The Software tool has been improved with support for disabled repos, allowing us to make use of COPR content to improve developer experience with applications like the PyCharm IDE. We also work with members of the community and upstreams on curating appdata (application metadata) for a smooth experience in the software market, which has received universally positive reviews.
- Wayland. Wayland has been moving forward fairly quickly in Fedora for some time. We are now using it by default for the login screen, and optionally in user sessions. Bugs that emerge are being dealt with steadily. Developers are working with upstream to avoid serious behavioral regression, which has led to drag and drop and improved input capabilities.
- The DevAssistant tool is included in the Workstation edition to encourage developers to set up their environments in line with Fedora recommendations.
TODO
Planned work ahead
- COPR repos. We are using the FESCo's third party repository policy change to ship metadata for specific COPR repositories, such as the PyCharm repo. We have a review open for packaging the repo definitions.
- The Workstation group is working with the Anaconda team to find ways to optimize the installer in a modular way for this edition. For instance, certain spokes of the installation process can be further streamlined given certain assumptions about the target use cases for Workstation.
