Copr is a[collection][2]of personal repositories for software that isn’t carried in Fedora Linux. Some software doesn’t conform to standards that allow easy packaging. Or it may not meet other Fedora Linux standards, despite being free and open-source. Copr can offer these projects outside the Fedora Linux set of packages. Software in Copr isn’t supported by Fedora infrastructure or signed by the project. However, it can be a neat way to try new or experimental software.
This article presents a few new and interesting projects in Copr. If you’re new to using Copr, see the[Copr User Documentation][3]for how to get started.
## [][4] Wike
[Wike][5]is a Wikipedia reader for the GNOME Desktop with search integration in the GNOME Shell. It provides distraction-free access to the[online encyclopedia][6]. The interface is minimalistic but it supports switching an article between multiple languages, bookmarks, article table of contents, dark mode, and more.

## [][10] DroidCam
We are living through confusing times, being isolated at our homes, and the majority of our interactions with friends and coworkers take place on some video conference platform. Don’t waste your money on an overpriced webcam if you carry one in your pocket already.[DroidCam][11]lets you pair your phone with a computer and use it as a dedicated webcam. The connection made through a USB cable or over WiFi. DroidCam provides remote control of the camera and allows zooming, using autofocus, toggling the LED light, and other convenient features.

Droidcam depends on_v4l2loopback_which must be installed manually fromthe [RPM Fusion Free repository][15].
[Nyxt][17]is a keyboard-oriented, infinitely extensible web browser designed for power users. It was heavily inspired by Emacs and as such is implemented and configured in Common Lisp providing familiar key-bindings ([Emacs][18],[vi][19],[CUA][20]).
Other killer features that cannot be missed are a built-in REPL,[tree history][21],[buffers instead of tabs][22], and[so much more][17].
Nyxt is web engine agnostic so don’t worry about pages rendering in unexpected ways.
