What does the `base` image include by default?

so, i'm considering making an image that uses the niri window manager with all of my configurations and stuff.
i know using the sericea base would be an easy way to do it since thats based on sway and includes everything out of the box for a wayland window manager setup, but i'd prefer a way to not have any of the default applications/utilities installed (sway, mako etc) or for the ability to simply remove them without having to do anything else so i can use my own set of programs/utilities.
so, again, what does the base by default? i assume its minimal out of the box, but what exactly would be missing? would i need to install things like cups or any of the default fedora tools/packages that are configured for desktop, or is it just a better idea to use the sericea image and do it that way?
Solution
base has most things you need
