## Description

iStoreOS is an embedded network operating system and router firmware based on OpenWrt. It provides a specialized Linux distribution designed to manage routing, switching, and device-level configurations on network hardware.

The system includes a web-based management interface for configuring network settings and installing software packages. It enables the customization and extension of network appliances through a writable filesystem and integrated package management.

The project covers home network administration and embedded network management, allowing for the provisioning of specialized hardware to control internet traffic and local connectivity.
