A few weeks ago, I started work on my own Linux distro, so I'm now looking to get some eyes on it now that it's in a good spot for daily use.

- Built on Fedora’s bootable container technology (bootc) where system updates are handled like OCI container images. Updates are atomic, predictable, and virtually impossible to break mid-install.
- Declarative "Nix-Style" build philosophy: Rather than manually tweaking settings over time, your entire system configuration is defined upfront. You get the reproducibility of NixOS without having to learn a custom DSL or give up standard Fedora binaries.
- Instead of shipping with a heavy desktop environment, it defaults to Niri, a modern, scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor written in Rust (Cosmic available as well).
- Includes tailored Rust utilities to streamline OS configuration, image building, check system health, and more.
