#Playwright testing is very helpful for all kinds of #WebDev projects, whether you're building libraries or apps.

However Playwright is only officially supported on Ubuntu.

So after experimenting with different ways to install it on #Fedora (and other non-Ubuntu) #Linux distros in the past years, this is my favourite approach so far:

@Greenheart excellent tutorial, thanks. I've been struggling to get Playwright working in Docker and I've been stopped by errors when I try to set up X forwarding with Wayland. Distrobox seems to take care of all of that, and I can run "ui", "debug", and "codegen" without any errors.

The only issue that I have with the tutorial is the greater than symbols in the install command cause it to not work at all when directly copied and pasted. Removing them would make the command easier to run.
