It seems so. I hope Cockpit is small enough so one day it could replace LuCi as OpenWRT interface, also on smaller devices. I recall of some quirks with LuCi, such as the interface not synced to system files, so that one was forced to edit them by hand. Although I'm a Linux guy, I'm a fan of OpnSense and XigmaNAS, both BSD based, and their super clean, stable and efficient web UI which looks somewhat similar to Cockpit.
- pabs3 4y agoThe LuCi model is to generate the configs for a service from a separate config that the config generation system stores and the UI understands. Personally I think that is a terrible model, because if you want to set an option the config generation system doesn't set, there will be no documentation for that and you have to edit/trace the undocumented shell scripts that do the generation. A better model for this is Augeas (or Config::Model), which understand config files and offer a more sane API that allows you to modify them in-place.
