regardless, my recommendation is DONT!!! you will waste your time and get no ROI.
why you may ask: glad you did; ever been to a release party to a *nix release? i have.
Microport, SCO, Brocade, & Linux require man Months of QA testing on all kinds of good & bad hw.
may i suggest that your posing these questions to this forum might indicate you could usefully use
google to inspect & learn the fedora install process.
please permit me to continue, consider the current distro you wish to make your own and just 'a few new apps'.
are those apps also install tested for the needed hw variety & robustness?
more, note that fedora itself allows my preferred approach in it's distribution,
Dont put all your eggs in 1 basket, specially if you Wove it!!
i intend to convey humor, no offense meant. i'll prove it by providing further insights.
may i ask your goal for this process change?
instead, start by taking fedora's bulletproof their distro media, only After that is successfully working with added apps, umount and test.
yes, i know there are ways to jam in the new apps in the install dialog, not safe!! ALL IMHO!!
consider this flow, ...
the apps you want to add, pair that with your fedora iso (i love the workstation iso!!)my suggestion is make a new iso
1. gather the apps you want to add (see also https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2011/02/linux-boot-process/ )
2. mount the init.ram boot media
3. add desired apps, umount.
4. boot test, repeat,...
hth, and again, no offense, just tart humor... good luck, jackc...

However all I could find is this page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_a_Fedora_install_ISO_for_testing#Build_a_DVD.iso, which is horribly out of date. Does anyone know a more current set of steps?
