Automated installation of multiple applications after a fresh OS install? (Fedora)
Automated installation of multiple applications after a fresh OS install? (Fedora)
Hi all,
I am about to do a bit of a distro hop, and I am looking at Fedora and its spins, after years on Debian / POP.
I am not looking forward to setting it all up again, it's a drag.
I wonder, is there a tool that lets me script installs?
I'll want to check if application exists, and if so, update, otherwise, install. That kind of thing.
Things like:
- Telegram
- Joplin
- Docker
- Firefox
- Ungoogle Chromium
- Sublime Text
- VSCodium
- Keepass
- Thunderbird
- DBeaver
- Gimp
- Inkscape
- KDENLive
- Syncthing
- Steam
- VLC
- Localsend
- Flameshot
- Element
- Cherrytree
- Calibre
- Anydesk
I show the list, only to give an idea of what might be involved.
I'm new to Fedora, so not sure how it differs beyond the package manager. But, thought I'd ask.
Does such a tool exist, and is it worth my time? I can practice on a VM before trying on the final install/s.
Thank you

Nix and home-manager, those are the only 2 I have off the top of my head.
