Work in Progress

A couple of projekts are in development for this topic:

• liminix - A Nix-based system for configuring consumer wifi routers or IoT device devices, of the kind that OpenWrt or DD-WRT or Gargoyle or Tomato run on.
• NixWRT - replacing OpenWRT with the nix toolchain.
  • This project has been archived
  • NixWRT Project Update 2018-01-16
  • Musl support in nixpkgs
• dweclaw openwrt - generate OpenWRT UCI config from Nix
• Not-OS - an operating system generator, based on NixOS, that, given a config, outputs a small (47 MB), read-only squashfs for a runit-based operating system
