It should be clarified that this distribution is -NOT- to be considered a ‘Fedora Spin’. It’s not that the terminal and/or terminal usage are a bad thing by any means, power users are more than welcome to continue with using the terminal, but for new users, point and click ease of use is usually expected.

More importantly, we want to be more point and click friendly, and avoid the basic user from having to open the terminal. This project aims to fix most of those issues and offer a better gaming, streaming, and content creation experience out of the box.

Some of the important things that are missing from Fedora, especially with regards to gaming include WINE dependencies, obs-studio, 3rd party codec packages such as those for gstreamer, 3rd party drivers such as NVIDIA drivers, and even small package fixes here and there. A typical point and click user can often struggle with how to get a lot of things working beyond the basic browser and office documents that come with the OS without having to take extra time to search documentation. Fedora is a very good workstation OS, however, anything involving any kind of 3rd party or proprietary packages is usually absent from a fresh install.

The Nobara Project, to put it simply, is a modified version of Fedora Linux with user-friendly fixes added to it.
