Fedora 36 Release Date and New Features
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
Fedora 36 is one of the [most anticipated releases of this year][1].
|
||
|
||
While we look forward to every major release, last year, [Fedora 35][2] has set up some exciting expectations with GNOME 41 and a new KDE flavor (Kinoite).
|
||
|
||
Fret not; if you cannot wait for Fedora 36, I shall highlight the essential details about the release.
|
||
|
||
### Fedora 36 Release Date
|
||
|
||
As per the official schedule, the early release date for Fedora 36 beta is **March 15, 2022**. And, the delayed date (in case) for Fedora 36 beta is **March 22, 2022**.
|
||
|
||
Once the public beta testing is complete, the final release can be expected on **April 19, 2022**. In case of a delay, the release date will be pushed to **April 26, 2022**.
|
||
|
||
You should also note that Fedora Linux 34 will reach its end of life on May 17**, 2022.**
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
You can try to get your hands on Fedora 36 now with a nightly build (linked at the bottom of this article), but with a few weeks to go for the beta release, you should wait it out.
|
||
|
||
### Fedora 36 Features
|
||
|
||
![][4]
|
||
|
||
As usual, Fedora 36 features the latest GNOME and other additions and improvements.
|
||
|
||
The key highlights include:
|
||
|
||
### 1\. GNOME 42
|
||
|
||
[GNOME 42][5] is an exciting upgrade with various visual and functional changes.
|
||
|
||
It also includes performance and visual tweaks, among other improvements. If you missed [GNOME 41 feature additions][6], you should also check that.
|
||
|
||
Of course, you should expect to find all the changes with Fedora 36. Here, I shall highlight those details using Fedora 36 (if you didn’t catch up with GNOME 42).
|
||
|
||
### 2\. System-wide Dark Mode
|
||
|
||
![][7]
|
||
|
||
Fedora 36 enjoys the system-wide dark mode introduced with GNOME 42.
|
||
|
||
While we had dark mode implementations on other Linux distributions, GNOME 42 helped Fedora 36 become an attractive option for desktop users.
|
||
|
||
The dark mode blends in perfectly and gives a clean GNOME experience.
|
||
|
||
### 3\. New Wallpapers
|
||
|
||
Without a new wallpaper, every other improvement sounds dull.
|
||
|
||
So, the Fedora Design Team brings along a beautifully crafted wallpaper in Fedora 36, illustrating the painting of a scenery, that looks interesting.
|
||
|
||
![][8]
|
||
|
||
The default wallpaper has a variant for day/night. As you notice the wallpaper for day time above, here’s the artwork for the night:
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Both look fantastic and soothing to the eyes.
|
||
|
||
### 4\. Linux Kernel 5.17
|
||
|
||
Fedora 36 is known to offer the latest Linux Kernel releases. As of now, it is currently running the release candidate versions of the upcoming Linux Kernel 5.17.
|
||
|
||
With the final Fedora 36 release, you should expect the stable version of Linux Kernel 5.17.
|
||
|
||
### 5\. Dark/Light Wallpapers
|
||
|
||
Along with the new default wallpapers for Fedora 36, it also features a dark/light mode wallpaper collection introduced with GNOME 42.
|
||
|
||
![][9]
|
||
|
||
As of now, testing the Fedora 36 Workstation (pre-release version), I can only find one of the wallpapers and not the whole collection that you get with GNOME 42.
|
||
|
||
So, you can probably expect more additions with Fedora 36 beta release.
|
||
|
||
You can choose to select the wallpapers with their available dark/light variants from the appearance.
|
||
|
||
### 6\. Screenshot User Interface and Native Screen Recording
|
||
|
||
The new screenshot user interface introduced with GNOME 42 is a fantastic addition. Also, with just a toggle, you can start recording your screen!
|
||
|
||
![][10]
|
||
|
||
And, you could see that in action with Fedora 36, working perfectly fine.
|
||
|
||
### 7\. Desktop Environment Updates
|
||
|
||
For obvious reasons, you should expect the latest desktop environments with Fedora 36.
|
||
|
||
The bare minimum should be GNOME 42, [KDE Plasma 5.24][11], and Xfce 4.16.
|
||
|
||
In addition to that, LXQt has been updated to 1.0.0.
|
||
|
||
### 8\. Important Technical Changes
|
||
|
||
Along with the visual changes and the Linux Kernel upgrade, there are various technical improvements with Fedora 36.
|
||
|
||
Some of them worth mentioning include:
|
||
|
||
* Updated the system openJDK package from Java 11 to Java 17.
|
||
* Introducing the upcoming Golang 1.18 version.
|
||
* Switching to Noto fonts as the default for various languages to ensure consistency in text rendering.
|
||
* The behaviour to exclude the recommended packages (considering you do not have them installed) when automatically upgrading in future.
|
||
* GNU Toolchain update to gcc 12 and glibc 2.35.
|
||
* Fix upgradability issues in some cases.
|
||
* Default Wayland session with NVIDIA proprietary driver.
|
||
* Updated PHP stack to latest 8.1.x.
|
||
* The RPM database will be relocated to /usr directory, currently it was in /var.
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
### Wrapping Up
|
||
|
||
Fedora 36 is going to be an exciting release.
|
||
|
||
When it releases, I’m looking forward to trying the Wayland session with NVIDIA’s proprietary driver on Fedora 36 Workstation.
