Fedora 27 is a planned stable release of community driven, open source operating system supported by Red Hat Inc. Keeping the tradition of the project, Fedora 27 brings latest and greatest open source technologies for the users. It ships with emerging technologies like GNOME 3.26, Wayland and more. Fedora 27 Beta, first and only development release of Fedora 27 was released on 3rd October 2017. It gives a clear idea on what we can expect from upcoming Fedora 27 release.
