The installation instructions are similar to the official Debian/Ubuntu instructions. Notable differences are:
* Slightly different file locations
* The `Jicofo` and `Jitsi Videobridge` components log to `syslog` instead of to their own logfiles.
* The `Jicofo` component runs from a service, not from an `init` script.
.Prerequisites
* Small server, which is accessible from the Internet
* Domain name and an SSL certificate for that domain
.Procedure
. Enable the `jitsi` repository:
+
----
$ sudo dnf copr enable lcts/jitsi
----
. Install the `jitsi` meta package to be able to configure a Jitsi server:
+
----
$ sudo dnf install jitsi
----
+
Alternatively, you can install other packages from the `jitsi` repository:
+
* `jitsi-meet` - the Jitsi Meet web app
* `jitsi-meet-nginx` - Jitsi configuration for NGinx
* `jitsi-meet-apache` -Jitsi configuration for Apache
* `jitsi-meet-prosody` - Jitsi configuration for Prosody
* `jitsi-videobridge` - the Jitsi Videobridge component
* `jicofo` - the Jitsi Conference Focus component
.Additional resources
* After installation, you need to configure all packages before you use them. For more information, see the `/usr/share/doc/<package>/README-fedora.md` file.
* You can report issues with packages at link:https://pagure.io/jitsi-rpm/issues[jitsi-rpm queue].
