Fedora base images

I just wanted to start by saying that I really like the approach you've taken with the Blue Build project. I've been experimenting with building custom images, and I was impressed by how easy it was to get started. My goal was to have a build as close as possible to the official Fedora Silverblue image, only modifying some packages and adding some tweaks. I used quay.io/fedora/fedora-silverblue as the base image, and your GitHub Action worked seamlessly. However, in the documentation, you default/recommended using universal blue images as the base images. Do the scripts in the modules assume that they will be applied upon a universal blue image, or can they be used with other images as I am doing?
Solution:
There are some modules like bling and akmods that assume you're building on a Ublue image. The more standard rpm-ostree, files, and script modules don't care

I'm currently building from a fedora image for my laptop and trying out our in-progress dnf module

Thanks Luke! I'm currently using the rpm-ostree, default-flatpaks, and signing modules, which (I guess) should be safe for my use case. dnf sounds like a great addition. I will definitely give it a try.
