== Introduction
|
||
|
|
||
|
Liminix is a Nix-based collection of software tailored for domestic wifi
|
||
|
router or IoT device devices, of the kind that OpenWrt or DD-WRT or
|
||
|
Gargoyle or Tomato run on.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is not NixOS-on-your-router: it's aimed at devices that are
|
||
|
underpowered for the full NixOS experience. It uses busybox tools, musl
|
||
|
instead of GNU libc, and s6-rc instead of systemd.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Liminix name comes from Liminis, in Latin the genitive declension of
|
||
|
"limen", or "of the threshold". Your router stands at the threshold of
|
||
|
your (online) home and everything you send to/receive from the outside
|
||
|
word goes across it.
