About Fedora CoreOS

Fedora CoreOS is a container host operating system from the Fedora Project. The image is kept minimal by design, updates are applied automatically, and it aims to run containerized workloads securely and at scale.

It supports a variety of installation methods and runs on multiple platforms. It is developed in the open by the Fedora CoreOS Working Group, with an issue tracker, IRC channel and mailing list for discussion. It suits people who want a small, self-updating base for container servers.
