Some software doesn’t conform to standards that allow easy packaging. Or it may not meet other Fedora standards, despite being free and open source. COPR can offer these projects outside the Fedora set of packages. Software in COPR isn’t supported by Fedora infrastructure or signed by the project. However, it can be a neat way to try new or experimental software.</p>
<p>Here’s a set of new and interesting projects in COPR.</p>
<p><span id="more-23937"></span></p>
<h3>MindForger</h3>
<p><a href="https://www.mindforger.com/">MindForger</a> is a Markdown editor and a notebook. In addition to features you’d expect from a Markdown editor, MindForger lets you split a single file into multiple notes. It’s easy to organize the notes and move them around between files, as well as search through them. I’ve been using MindForger for some time for my study notes, so it’s nice that it’s available through COPR now.<img class="size-full wp-image-23944 alignnone" src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/4-cool-new-projects-to-try-in-copr-for-december-2018.png" alt="" width="800" height="337" /></p>
<h4>Installation instructions</h4>
<p>The repo currently provides MindForger for Fedora 29 and Rawhide. To install MindForger, use these commands:</p>
<pre>sudo dnf copr enable deadmozay/mindforger sudo dnf install mindforger </pre>
<h3>Clingo</h3>
<p><a href="https://potassco.org/clingo/">Clingo</a> is a program for solving logical problems using <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_set_programming">answer set programming</a> (ASP) modeling language. With ASP, you can declaratively describe a problem as a logical program that Clingo then solves. As a result, Clingo produces solutions to the problem in the form of logical models, called answer sets.</p>
