Aurora Press Kit

Thank you for engaging and generating content about Aurora and Universal-Blue, it means a lot!

Explanation of how to use the branding and terminology for the Aurora project is detailed down below.

Terminology​

The project is known as Aurora and there are no abbreviations of it.

Aurora is built with and on Universal Blue, which publishes the base images that it uses. These in turn are derived from Fedora's Kinoite images. Universal Blue also builds other similar images including Bluefin, Bazzite, and uCore. It also acts as the GitHub organization for all of these projects including Aurora.

Proper Usage​

  • Aurora: Used to refer to this project and the operating system.
  • Aurora DX: Used to refer to the "Developer Experience (-DX)" edition of Aurora.
  • Aurora Helium LTS: this is used to refer to the Long Term Support Release of Aurora.

Improper Usage​

  • AuroraOS - or any addition of "OS" to the name
  • Fedora Aurora - we are not directly related to Fedora and this name implies that. Checkout the Mission Document from Universal Blue.
  • Universal Blue Aurora or uBlue Aurora - "Bluefin is built with Universal Blue" or "Bluefin is a Universal Blue image" is recommended instead.
  • "Immutable Distribution" - Aurora is an operating system, it is neither immutable nor a distribution, it is a custom image based on Fedora or CentOS, depending on the edition.
