Why Bonito
Atomic & rollback-safe
Built on bootc: image-based updates that apply in one transaction and roll back just as cleanly.
Homebrew baked in
Thousands of CLI tools and fonts a `brew install` away — no layering, no rebuilds.
Flathub by default
Full Flathub access out of the box. Install any Flatpak on the net, instantly.
NVIDIA + CUDA option
A dedicated -nvidia flavor ships the proprietary driver and CUDA for gaming and AI workloads.
Freshest of everything
Fedora ships the latest kernel, GNOME, and Mesa — Bonito brings that to an immutable bootc desktop.
Largest ecosystem
Fedora is the most widely used desktop Linux base — broad hardware and software coverage out of the box.
