##Commotion-OpenWRT

Commotion is an open source “device-as-infrastructure” communication platform that integrates users’ existing cell phones, Wi-Fi enabled computers, and other wireless-capable devices to create community- and metro-scale, peer-to-peer communications networks.

This repoencompasses the development of the OpenWRT router firmware component of the Commotion Wireless project. This repo, installs the following other Commotion projects in order to become a fully configured Commotion Node.

###The Commotion Daemon

https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotiond.git

The commotion daemon is an embedded daemon and library that provides a common interface for manging wireless mesh networks.

###Commotion Quick-Start

https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-quick-start

###Commotion Theme

https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-openwrt-theme

The Commotion Open-WRT theme for the web-interface on Commotion wireless routers.

###Commotion-Apps

https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-apps

The application suite allows for developers to easily advertise applications over a commotion mesh using mdns, users to easily find applications through the router app advertising interface, and node owners to easily manage and customize their application portals to better support community application support.

###Serval Crypto

https://github.com/opentechinstitute/serval-crypto
