[magazine] Article idea: Launch fedora on dply.co
by Matthew Miller
I came across this on Reddit yesterday — a Digital Ocean employee has a
service where you can launch test images in a cloud environment really
easily from a website with a github account. You get two hours for
free. Since Digital Ocean has Fedora (Dusty tells me Fedora 25 should
be available RSN), Fedora is an option. I was thinking about a Fedora
Magazine article once F25 is available, with a direct link to actually
launch a Fedora instance, and some screenshots showing how it works.
I'm talking with the creator about also adding Fedora Atomic, and it
occured to me that we could have some followup articles with things
like "set up Wordpress in a container on Fedora Atomic" with pre-cooked
configs for doing that with a button press.
To try it (Fedora 24), click this: https://dply.co/b/fz95S8RH
