I found Fedora is terrible at documentation, or at least around rpm-ostree they are. It has made learning more of a struggle than necessary. I think the basics are that there is some sort of container image builder that can work from a manifest, then some way to create a distro out of a container image. All of the content I can find is fragmented across many sites and not complete enough to actually use. Extremely frustrating.





Fair call. In any case I think you'll find things moving towards bootc and away from having to know rpm-ostree at all. The bootc documentation for fedora is pretty good and the Universal Blue project has built some awesome distros that use bootc.

Yea the docs on the Fedora side are rough. I would help but I don’t know enough because the learning was so hard.
