[OpenWrt-Devel] [Battlemesh] ImageBuilder frontend projects, or how to generate custom OpenWrt images

[Philipp Borgers]

Hi,

you should take look at the Freifunk Berlin firmware and the Gluon project:

https://github.com/freifunk-berlin/firmware

https://gluon.readthedocs.io/en/v2019.1.x/

The Freifunk Berlin firmware uses uci-defaults scripts quite a lot for setting
default configuration or changing configuration on upgrades:

https://github.com/freifunk-berlin/firmware-packages/tree/master/defaults

Both projects are under active development and used by a lot of Freifunk
communities in Germany.

Best Philipp
