Hey Folks,
Toolbx as a blocker for Fedora Workstation was declared as part of Fedora Linux 39 changes process. The idea for test week is for testers is to install latest version of Toolbx and install Fedora and any other OS as well. The wiki[0] has all the necessary details. Come join us and make Fedora better!

Forgive my obtuseness, but I've no idea what Toolbx is and the URL for the Test page doesn't actually say anything about it. Yes, I could look it up, but I can't help thinking this kind of communication could be improved.

Toolbox is a tool to create disposable development environments using Podman's containers. It's used in OStree based systems (Fedora Silverblue, Fedora CoreOS, etc.) to install packages with DNF.
You can find a quick intro to toolbox on fedora magazine [0] or try it by running `$ toolbox enter` in a terminal.
