News: Fedora 36 beta released.

Fedora 36 beta was released and I tested it today.
First of all, Fedora 36 is still in pre-release mode and you should be careful to back up your data before upgrading it has a rollback option just in case.
I haven't seen any significant differences in browsing, and overall it seems faster.
The upgrade commands are the same but the installation process seems more complex.
# dnf upgrade --refresh
# dnf autoremove
# dnf install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade -y
# dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=36 --allowerasing
# dnf system-upgrade reboot
# cat /etc/os-release 
Let's fix the install process:
# dnf system-upgrade clean
# symlinks -r -d /usr 
This is ascreenshot take on my HP Compaq 6710b laptop, you can see the Workstation Edition Prerelease.

Fedora 35 : Kdenlive tool.

Note:
The new title of this blog is:About Fedora Linux distro
This was my first blog since blogspot.com and now blogger.com and I wrote my first articles and tutorials using the Linux operating system, especially Fedora distro.
Because I used it so much and it had an impact on my free time. Initially the title was generic "About me and my life" and I later kept it for S.E.O. and because it worked just as well as me.
The new title will not change the content at all and I hope it will come with new and good content.

Let's go back to today's tutorial article: installing kdenlive software.
Kdenlive is a powerful free and open source cross-platform video editing program made by the KDE community.
The last release was on Jan 7, 2022.
I use the DNF utility as follows:
[root@fedora mythcat]# dnf search kdenlive

[root@fedora mythcat]# dnf install kdenlive
Last metadata expiration check: 1:21:05 ago on Sat 22 Jan 2022 06:05:54 PM EET.
Dependencies resolved.
...
Complete!
After install I run well with this software:
[mythcat@fedora ~]$ kdenlive

Fedora 35 : Testing the new Django web framework version 4.0.1 with channels.

Today I tested in Fedora 35 the new version 4.0.1 of the Django framework and the channels package.
Channels augments Django to bring WebSocket, long-poll HTTP, task offloading, and other async support to your code, using familiar Django design patterns and a flexible underlying framework that lets you not only customize behaviors but also write support for your own protocols and needs. see the GitHub website.
The entire tutorial can be viewed on my blog about python programming language.
The result shows that it works with the admin webpage:

Fedora 35 : Roblox Player and Roblox Studio with Grapejuice.

In today's tutorial, I will show you how to install and play Roblox on the Linux Fedora 35 distribution using Grapejuice software.
The Grapejuice software installs protocol handlers to open games from the Roblox website and file handlers to open place files. It also provides a management interface for installing and launching Roblox.
For this, you will need to have a computer with the necessary hardware requirements for this online game.
I tested it on the old HP Compaq 6710b laptop on which I installed Fedora version 35 and it worked very hard.
Here are the Linux commands I used to install.
[mythcat@fedora ~]$ git clone https://gitlab.com/brinkervii/grapejuice
