EnvStation v1.0.0
🚀 EnvStation v1.0.0: The Official Launch & Rebrand
We are evolving! What started as Bazzite Architect has now grown into EnvStation. This release marks our transition to a professional, unified development control center for immutable Linux systems.
EnvStation v1.0.0 isn't just a name change - it’s a complete overhaul of how you manage your development environments.
What's Inside?
🛡️ Intelligent Drift Detection (New!): Stop worrying about manual terminal tweaks. EnvStation now uses "Smart Baselines" to distinguish between system bloat and your actual project dependencies. Sync your Manifest, Distrobox, and DevContainers with a single click.
🔗 Unified Environment Parity: No more "dumb" host terminals. EnvStation automatically mirrors your dependencies across your IDE and your native terminal (Ptyxis, Alacritty, etc.).
🏗️ Refined Scaffolding: 1-click setups for Python, Node.js/TypeScript, Rust, C++, C#, and Java.
💾 Storage Control: Relocate your Podman storage (GraphRoot) to secondary drives safely via the UI—no more cryptic config editing.
⚡ Built for Speed: Still powered by Rust and Tauri V2 for the smallest possible footprint and maximum performance.
Installation:
We recommend the AppImage for the best experience on immutable systems, as it requires no reboot and no system layering.
💎 AppImage (Portable)
- AppImage will come soon, currently not working.
🔵 Fedora / Bazzite / Silverblue (.rpm)
To install EnvStation permanently on your host:
rpm-ostree install ./EnvStation-1.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm
systemctl reboot
🟠 Ubuntu / Debian (.deb)
sudo apt install ./EnvStation_1.0.0_amd64.deb
⚪ Arch Linux
# If you have a built pacman package:
sudo pacman -U ./envstation-1.0.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
# Or install from AUR using an AUR helper (if package published):
paru -S envstation # or yay -S envstation
Note for legacy users:
If you were using Bazzite Architect, please migrate your manifests to the new .envstation format. EnvStation will automatically detect your old containers, but we recommend a fresh sync to benefit from the new Drift Detection logic.
Happy Engineering! 🍻
