* Update the OS to its most current version using `swupd`.
* Install the most common applications for system administrators and
developers using bundles.
* Set up a new user and add the new user to the `wheel` group.

|CL| has a unique application and architecture to add and update applications
and to perform system updates called software update utility or
:command:`swupd`. Software applications are installed as bundles using the
sub-command :command:`bundle-add`.
The |CL| software utility :ref:`swupd <swupd-guide>` allows you to perform system updates while reaping the benefits of upstream development.
The `sysadmin-basic` bundle installs the vast majority of
applications useful to a system administrator.

To update your newly installed OS, run.
.. code-block:: bash
sudo swupd update
Software applications are installed as bundles using the command
:command:`swupd bundle-add`. Experienced Linux* users can compare
using `swupd` to running :command:`apt-get` or :command:`yum install` for
package management. Yet |CL| manages packages at the level of bundles, which
are integrated stacks of packages.
The `sysadmin-basic` bundle installs the vast majority of applications useful to a system administrator. To install it, enter:
.. code-block:: bash
