The Fedora Project is a global partnership of free software community members. The Fedora Project is sponsored by Red Hat, which invests in our infrastructure and resources to encourage collaboration and incubate innovative new technologies. Some of these technologies may later be integrated into Red Hat products. They are developed in Fedora and produced under a free and open source license from inception, so other free software communities and projects are free to study, adopt, and modify them.

Read an overview to read more about our mission, our community, our governance, and what makes Fedora unique. You can also learn about our vision and core values — the foundations upon which the project is built. We also have information relating to our user base, and the objectives for our technical work.

What's inside Fedora?

The Fedora 39 tour covers our most recent release.

The Release Schedule gives a timeline of the next release, Fedora 40. The Feature List documents the features planned for Fedora 40.

How do I get involved?

There are many ways to contribute to the Fedora distribution and the community that surrounds it. We have a large community full of talented and energetic people who enjoy meeting new contributors and helping them learn how to participate in Fedora. The list below provides links to each team and sub-project. Use it to visit a team that interests you. On the team page you can find out how to contact other community members and get involved in the Fedora community.
