List of Community Created Custom Images

General
1

Note: Use the images below at your own risk.

The following lists are an attempt to organize and collect public configs of custom Fedora Atomic Desktop images by the community split up between larger projects intended for multiple users and personal images that are shown as a proof of concept. Each custom image will help others build their own and allow for us to learn from each other.

Community Projects

This list shows images that are intended for multiple people to use daily and have support channels. They are less likely to be abandoned without proper announcement than personal images.

Create Your Own Custom Image

  • Build your own Containerfile based off our base and end-user images with our Image Template tool.
  • Fork Bazzite or Bluefin, or Aurora then use the Pull app on your Github repository to keep your fork up to date with upstream.
  • The BlueBuild project is also a great alternative starting point for creating your own custom image.

Whoa, Secureblue caught my attention. I wondered if there would be interest in building a hardened Fedora. Turns out there already was!

Curious why Eternal Linux is not on the list

It’s a wiki, people can add whatever images they’d like!

Wanted to add my own image:

Aurora Repo

A KDE based fork of Bluefin that wants to stay as close to upstream as possible, with the better desktop of course. :ok_hand:

Eternal Linux is my highly opinionated and unstable distribution. I don’t intend on people using it directly, but rather cloning it to their own GitHub account and making changes there. The aim is to show what’s possible, not for people to depend on the project.

I deprecate older versions of packages without announcements (as i expect only I am using them) and I plan to add additional security tooling that most may not want, so would recommend not making your desktops dependant on my repo - create your own using my code as a base or reference. This is why I don’t really advertise it on these sorts of posts.

Eternal Linux is what I need in a desktop, and I often use it as a test-bed for things I bring across to Universal Blue.

Yes, people can use it if they wish, but don’t expect anything near as stable as Universal Blue images as I am running it as a personal project, rather than a community project.

Split this up between ‘community projects’ and ‘personal images’ so the projects intended for massive amounts of users that have a specific niche filed are at the top while the personal, opinionated images are at the bottom for those who want real world examples of how to make their own custom image. Also removed archived repos.
