I have switched to f36, no longer using this.

Automating all the things I do after installing fedora with ansible.

Support

• Desktop Environment: GNOME
• Distribution: Fedora
  • versions 35+: not supported due to major changes in GNOME
  • version 35: supported and tested
  • versions below 35: untested

How to run

• To run defaults

  curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sujaldev/fedora-post-install/main/run.sh | sh

• To pass extra arguments

  curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sujaldev/fedora-post-install/main/run.sh | sh -s "has_nvidia_gpu=True personalized=True"
