The OpenWrt project is similar in nature to postmarketOS. While postmarketOS is intended for popular mobile devices, OpenWrt is intended for embedded devices, namely WiFi routers.
The OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices.
Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management.
This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application.
For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned nor intended.
