Fedora is testing a new system installer |
|
The Fedora team are working on a new system installer for their distribution. The Anaconda installer has a bit of an awkward interface and its front-end is built upon the obsolete GTK3 development libraries. With this in mind, the project is testing a new, web-based system installer. "The Anaconda team implemented the current design of the GTK-based installer decades ago. It uses a “hub-and-spoke” design that can sometimes feel like jumping around sections to when installing. We wanted to rethink the installation process, to create a more streamlined experience where people are guided through the installation process step-by-step in a linear manner, so they don’t have to hunt for the right things to configure amid all the possible settings. Instead of figuring out how to configure the system first, the goal should be to show you a set of applicable options, and then tailor the experience from there." Screenshots of the new installer, along download links for testing out the installer in development branch of Fedora's Workstation edition, can be found in this news post. |
