#289 Finalize installer requirements
Closed: Fixed 2 years ago by aday. Opened 2 years ago by aday.

Anaconda is getting a new UI. To feed into that process, we're documenting the installer needs and requirements for Fedora Workstation.

The latest version of this document can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nb-UoVBfed0oOjri3gDd4GwfCPPp6vl_/view?usp=sharing

It would be good to review it and clean up as many uncertainties as possible


  1. I think the biggest thing that causes confusion in Anaconda is the lack of a back-forward mechanism like other installers such as the ones from elementaryOS/Pop OS installer, Ubiquity and Calamares;

  2. I also remembered that someone said that too technical terms like Blivet-GUI are bad and I agree;

  3. Is it possible to let the timezone configuration to happen in gnome-initial-setup?

  4. Anaconda should open in a windowed mode. Using appmenu > Quit isn't too obvious if the user wants to quit;

  5. Could be great to use libadwaita, if possible, so UI elements could be well-organized.

Thanks for your comments, @cereal-lava-planet . I think we have those points covered.

I think we looked over the latest version of the requirements document, so closing this ticket.
