by wanting wayland that tells me that you should look at the workstation
or KDE ks and edit from there
dnf install fedora-kickstarts pykickstart
cd ./usr/share/spin-kickstarts
sudo ksflatten -c fedora-live-workstation.ks -o flat-work.ks
the flat-work.ks will give you a good base

Thanks for your help with a starting point. I have begun looking at
the kickstart files to try to figure out what I am looking at and
thinking about how I would change them for sway.
Do you guys have a recommendation for a login manager? Would we want
one with wayland support or is it fine to rely on X for compatibility?

I have CC'd the i3 SIG mailinglist.

This is actually the hardest part of the whole process: selecting
the "right"
applications to include, so that you can provide a polished user
experience with sensible defaults.
In case you want to take a look at the technical details, you'll find
the kickstarts for the i3 spin on pagure [1] and the instructions
how to
build the isos locally on the docs page [2].
I'd also like to mention that the i3 SIG keeps getting the
question "Why
not sway?" pretty frequently, thus I assume that there is definitely a
demand for a sway spin. If you can find enough interested
contributors,
then it would be certainly possible to create a sway spin and
build upon
the bits and pieces that the i3 SIG learned (and collaborate as
much as
possible).
Cheers,
Dan
