70+ ## 📋 Prerequisites
71+
72+ ** draphyOS requires Fedora Linux.** Install Fedora first, then run the draphyOS installer.
73+
74+ ### Recommended: Fedora i3 Spin (Best Experience)
75+
76+ The [ Fedora i3 Spin] ( https://fedoraproject.org/spins/i3/ ) is the ideal base — minimal, lightweight, and comes with i3 pre-configured.
77+
78+ 1 . ** Download** → [ Fedora i3 Spin] ( https://fedoraproject.org/spins/i3/ ) (ISO ~ 1.8GB)
79+ 2 . ** Create bootable USB** → Use [ Fedora Media Writer] ( https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/download ) or [ Ventoy] ( https://ventoy.net/ )
80+ 3 . ** Install Fedora** → Boot from USB, follow the installer
81+ 4 . ** Run draphyOS** → After first login, run the install command below
82+
83+ ### Alternative: Other Fedora Variants
84+
85+ draphyOS also works on other Fedora editions. The installer will set up i3 alongside your existing desktop:
86+
87+ | Variant | Download | Notes |
88+ | ---------| ----------| -------|
89+ | ** Fedora XFCE Spin** | [ Download] ( https://fedoraproject.org/spins/xfce/ ) | ⭐ Recommended fallback — lightweight, stable |
90+ | ** Fedora Workstation** | [ Download] ( https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/ ) | GNOME desktop, most popular |
91+ | ** Fedora KDE Spin** | [ Download] ( https://fedoraproject.org/spins/kde/ ) | KDE Plasma desktop |
92+ | ** Fedora Server** | [ Download] ( https://fedoraproject.org/server/ ) | Minimal, headless (add GUI manually) |
93+
94+ > ** 💡 Tip:** If you're new to tiling window managers, ** Fedora XFCE Spin** is a great choice. XFCE provides a familiar traditional desktop as a fallback if i3 feels overwhelming. You can switch between i3 and XFCE at the login screen (click the gear icon).
95+
96+ ### System Requirements
97+
98+ | Requirement | Minimum | Recommended |
99+ | -------------| ---------| -------------|
100+ | ** RAM** | 1 GB | 2 GB+ |
101+ | ** Storage** | 10 GB | 20 GB+ |
102+ | ** CPU** | Any x86_64 | — |
103+ | ** GPU** | Any (Intel/AMD/NVIDIA) | — |
