This looks cool!
This is such a big plus, I was extra cautious that an update would break something right before finals
Any resources on dual booting? I didn't have a great experience with it and I feel like students may prefer that for the programs that only offer windows / macos support.
University courses are usually "we only offer support for Windows & MacOS", so a lot of students may give up on Linux unless they have the backup.
What I've understood thus far on dual booting is that it's never really safe unless you keep the two OS installations on different drives with each its own boot partition, so you never risk of one overwriting the other.
You can still try to install on a single drive, but, unless things have changed, you should make sure that Windows (don't know about macOS) is installed first and then you install a distribution second, you'll have trouble if it's a Fedora immutable flavor though because in my experience that erases the boot partition as well
