## What it is
YodaOS is a Linux distribution built on OpenWrt for voice-enabled IoT devices, using JavaScript as its primary application language. It targets boards like the Raspberry Pi 3B+ and Kamino18 and embraces Web standards for device app development.

## Use cases
- build a voice-enabled smart speaker on a raspberry pi
- develop IoT device apps in javascript
- create a custom linux distro for voice assistants
- prototype voice-controlled hardware with web standards
- build embedded voice products on openwrt

## When to choose
- you want to build voice-first IoT devices using JavaScript
- you need an OpenWrt-based OS with a Node.js-like runtime for embedded hardware
- you target supported boards like Raspberry Pi 3B+ or Kamino18

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained OS with recent security updates
- you want general-purpose Linux rather than a voice-IoT-specific distribution
- your hardware is not among the supported boards

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: iot, embedded, speech-recognition, programming-language
- domain: iot, embedded-systems, operating-systems, speech-processing
- platform: embedded, iot
