+# dnf / RPM (Fedora COPR)
+
+Provides the `pkg-dnf` sh1pt target adapter for building and publishing RPM packages to [Fedora COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org).
+
+## What it does
+
+- Generates a valid `.spec` file for building RPM packages
+- Submits build tasks to your Fedora COPR project via the COPR API
+- Supports x86_64, aarch64, and noarch architectures
+
+## Package
+
+- Name: `@profullstack/sh1pt-target-pkg-dnf`
+- Path: `packages/targets/pkg-dnf`
+- Adapter ID: `pkg-dnf`
+- Homepage: https://sh1pt.com
+
+## Setup
+
+```bash
+sh1pt secret set COPR_LOGIN <your-copr-login>
+sh1pt secret set COPR_TOKEN <your-copr-api-token>
+sh1pt secret set COPR_PROJECT <owner>/<project>
+```
+
+See [Fedora COPR docs](https://docs.pagure.org/copr.copr/user_documentation.html) for setup steps.
