Fedora is one of the most used Linux distributions today, it does not reach the level of popularity of Ubuntu but it is quite used and adaptable to any type of environment, thanks to the three flavors it offers, Workstation , Server and Atomic .Fedora is a Linux distribution based on RPM , which is characterized as a stable system. RPM is a package management tool that is maintained by the international community of engineers, graphic designers and users. This tool is the one used by other distros such as Mageia, PCLinuxOS or openSUSE .

The different versions of Fedora

Workstation

This version offers a polished and easy to use operating system for laptops and desktops, with a full battery of tools for developers and creators of all kinds. Workstation would be the 'normal' version for most Linux users.

Server

As its name implies, this is the server-only version, which offers tools for managing and controlling the resources used by the team based on the Cockpit interface . In addition, it is not necessary to configure the server from 0 thanks to the different 'roles' that allow you to customize the Rolekit tool .

Atomic (Cloud)

This version of Fedora offers a minimal image for use in cloud environments. Atomic Includes only the essentials and is light enough to be on less powerful equipment. The advantage is that you can run applications directly in the cloud.

Although Fedora uses the GNOME 3 desktop environment by default, it is possible to choose images with other environments such as Plasma KDE, Xfce, LXDE or Mate-Compiz . In addition there is also a version specially designed for Raspberry Pi devices .

It should be noted that Fedora is not a recommended distribution for users who are just beginning in the Linux world or as the first distribution to choose, it is directed more towards advanced users with experience in Linux.
