This article introduces four new projects available in Copr, with installation instructions.

Copr-ais a build-system for anyone in the Fedora community. It hosts thousands of projects for various purposes and audiences. Some of them should never be installed by anyone, some are already being transitioned to the official Fedora Linux repositories, and the rest are somewhere in between. Copr gives you the opportunity to install 3rd party software that is not available in Fedora Linux repositories, try nightly versions of your dependencies, use patched builds of your favorite tools to support some non-standard use-cases, and just experiment freely.

If you don';t know-ahow to enable a repository-aor if you are concerned about whether-ait is safe to use Copr, please consult the-aproject documentation.

This article takes a closer look at interesting projects that recently landed in Copr.
