Our website got a redesign! No more looking like a documentation site - now Universal Blue has a slick landing page just like Bluefin and Bazzite.

Check it out! Tell a friend! universal-blue.org/

Thanks to @kylegospo for making this. ♥️

universal-blue.orgUniversal Blue - Powered by the future, delivered todayUniversal Blue is a diverse set of images using Fedora Atomic's OCI support as a delivery mechanism. That's nerdspeak for the ultimate Linux client!

@UniversalBlue @kylegospo That looks amazing, great work! Also, the new Bluefin logo is 🤌.

My only suggestion is that I dont think the base images should be so hidden, they are great daily drivers from my experience. Clean UX just like upstream Fedora Atomic, but with sane additions like distrobox and nvidia drivers. If they could have a page on the site again instead of just the github package list, that could be cool.

@dajix @UniversalBlue Thanks! We're working on simplifying custom image creation via containerfiles, when that work is done that page should contain all the base images and a ton more information about them.

@kylegospo @UniversalBlue Oooh, okay. I have made a couple of uBlue images based on startingpoint, so I am excited to see what changes are coming.

@UniversalBlue @kylegospo Ahh, okay. So does that mean uBlue is working on a simple way to build images, and then BlueBuild now exists as a 3rd party alternative method to achieve the same result?

@dajix @kylegospo not quite. uBlue exists as a proof of concept and focuses on the cloud native way of making and maintaining a custom image of Fedora. We do it the way a cloud or DevOps engineer would do it. Then Bluefin/Bazzite are the final products we're working toward that can be enjoyed super simply.

BlueBuild is working on the simpler way to build images that doesn't require knowing cloud native stuff. Used to live in uBlue, now they spun off.
