Bluefin DX (Developer Experience) is a variant of Bluefin with cloud-native developer
tools pre-installed: kubectl, helm, kind, go, node, Podman, and more.
Load with: point your agent at this file.
bootc status# Check your current image
bootc status --json | jq -r '.status.booted.image.image.image'
# Should contain "bluefin-dx" in the image name (not the tag)
# Or check for dx-specific tools
which kubectl && echo "DX tools present"
If you're on base Bluefin and want DX, rebase:
# Switch to Bluefin DX (replace XX with your Fedora version)

# Useful aliases (add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.config/fish/config.fish)
alias k=kubectl
alias kns='kubectl config set-context --current --namespace'
VS Code is available as a Flatpak. Install:
flatpak install flathub com.visualstudio.code
For devcontainer support, install the Dev Containers extension inside VS Code.
Bluefin DX integrates well with AI coding tools:
# GitHub Copilot CLI
brew install gh
gh extension install github/gh-copilot
# OpenCode
# Check the Bluefin testhub for available AI tools
ujust # show all available recipes
ujust dx-group # add docker/incus/libvirt/serial group permissions for the current user
# required for Docker, Podman socket, libvirt, and serial device access
# (reboot required after running)
Use Distroshelf (io.github.ranfdev.DistroShelf) for a GUI view of Distrobox containers.
Install: flatpak install flathub io.github.ranfdev.DistroShelf
