=== Introduction ===

iNet Wireless Daemon (iwd) project aims to provide a comprehensive Wi-Fi connectivity solution for Linux based devices.  The core goal of the project is to optimize resource utilization: storage, runtime memory and link-time costs.  This is accomplished by not depending on any external libraries and utilizes features provided by the Linux Kernel to the maximum extent possible.  The result is a self-contained environment that only depends on the Linux Kernel and the runtime C library.
