Openwrt is such a gem,not just for home routers but also for IoT gateways etc. Its installation base is probably on par with Debian. I have long been hoping that Linux Foundation or somebody else to endorse this project and give it a huge boost on top of this already great project.

Just the other day I tried the build system[1] for openwrt and I was amazed to find how easy it is to create a custom image for a platform of your choice. And not just the kernel you can also build specific packages ,if they are not already supported by the package repository or are outdated.

Everything can be done from a graphical interface. Just a few stokes of keyboard and you have your own custom build. Really impressive stuff.
