Welcome to pyLCI’s documentation!

pyLCI stands for Python-based Linux Control Interface. It’s an external interface for configuration of your Linux devices in an easy and quick way.

It can be used on:

  • Embedded devices (where dependency on Python isn’t problematic to satisfy), such as OpenWRT-powered routers
  • Single-board computers, including, but not limited to Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone and many others
  • Tablets and laptops
  • Servers
  • Desktop PCs and HTPCs
