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.
