Basically, it’s systemd with the superfluous stuff cut out, a (relatively) coherent idea of what it wants to be, support for non-glibc/non-Linux platforms, an approach that aims to minimize complicated design and various cleanups".

== Daemontools ( legacy ) ==
*[[http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Daemontools|Gentoo Wiki "Daemontools"]] - "Daniel J. Bernstein's daemontools package, described by him as "a collection of tools for managing UNIX services", is the pioneer of what some people call today process supervision suites, i.e. packages that provide tools for performing process supervision. There are no further releases of daemontools after 0.76 (released in 2001), but other software packages have been inspired by its design principles, notably runit, s6, perp, nosh, and an enhanced succesor, daemontools-encore".

It can be used as alternative to sysvinit or systemd, either by itself or alongside OpenRC. Additionally, ```runit``` can be employed as a PID 1 init system or as a supervision layer, managing services defined by OpenRC".
*[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runit|EN.Wikipedia "runit"]], [[http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runit_(Init-System)|DE.Wikipedia "runit (Init-System)"]] - "runit ist ein Init-System für POSIX-Systeme, das als Ersatz für SysVinit konzipiert wurde.

It can be used as an init system component, and also as a helper for supervising OpenRC services".
*[[http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/S6-rc|Gentoo Wiki "S6-rc"]] - "A service manager for s6-based systems, i.e. a suite of programs that can start and stop services, both long-running daemons and one-time initialization scripts, in the proper order according to a dependency tree. It can be used as an init system component, with a role similar to that of OpenRC for sysvinit + OpenRC systems".

==== Tools & Toolsets for Embedded Linux ====
*[[http://www.busybox.net/|BusyBox: The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux]] - "BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system".
