Built for environments where reliability isn't optional. Plain English commands, automatic rollback, and operational features from day one.
Progress notes, design decisions, and release milestones as Routerly evolves.
Every feature in Routerly exists because it solves a real problem in austere environments. No bloat, no unnecessary complexity.
When you're troubleshooting under pressure, you shouldn't need to remember cryptic flags. Commands that read like sentences reduce cognitive load and errors.
Bad configs happen. Routerly tests connectivity after every change and automatically reverts if things break. No manual recovery, no lost access.
Immutable OS, transactional updates, automatic security patches. Designed for deployed edge devices where you can't just "reboot and fix it."
Informed by operational experience: Routerly's features come from real-world work with network infrastructure in tactical communications, secure edge deployments, and environments where reliability isn't negotiable.
Current status: Active development in Go. Building the routing core with operational reliability features: automatic rollback, health checks, security zone isolation, and audit logging from the start.
Deployment model: Distributed as a snap package. Designed for Ubuntu Core deployments where security, reliability, and automatic updates matter most.
Each phase focuses on core operational capabilities. No unnecessary features, just what actually matters in deployed environments.
