= Fedora Tools
:page-layout: without_menu
Fedora includes a set of programs that enable users to customize and maintain a Fedora installation to meet individual needs. Fedora editions and spins each use these tools in a different way. Read the edition documentation to learn how to use these tools in a practical way. Here we provide a general overview and functional description for the tools that complements the edition documentation.
Comming soom
In general, Fedora is focused on its upstream projects, so also with the administration and management tools. This applies to both the software itself as well as the documentation. The Fedora documentation consequently focuses on describing Fedora specific customizations, e.g. the choice of data directories or default values.
Fedora uses the following upstream projects.
== Instance Management
Anaconda::
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda[Anaconda] is the installation program used by Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux and some other distributions for installation of rpm file based systems, as Workstation or Server.
* Upstream documentation: https://anaconda-installer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/[Welcome to Anaconda’s documentation!]
* Fedora documentation: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda[Anaconda]
* However, the first source of information should definitely be the installation guidance of the Fedora variant in question.
DNF::
The https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf[Dandified YUM (DNF)] is the software packages manager, used by Fedora to manage the rpm based software distribution.
* Upstream documentation: https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/[DNF, the next-generation replacement for YUM]
* Fedora related documentation: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/dnf/[Using the DNF software package manager]
* The documentation of the different Fedora variants may include additional, and more detailed information.
