If you want to turn your Raspberry PI board into something that controls your lights, doors, sprinklers or other devices, by designing your own "firmware", thingOS may be a good choice. # Philosophy -thingOS aims to make the development of small dedicated Linux-based OSes an easy task. Deployment, over-the-air updates and backups shouldn't be a pain in the ass. Developers should concentrate on their main goal rather than removing unused packages and services from existing OSes to lighten them up, taking care of network connection reliability or enabling the watchdog. +**thingOS** aims to make the development of small dedicated Linux-based OSes an easy task.
