====== MOSH ======

MOSH is a modular smart-home and embedded networking platform built around flexible nodes, reusable elements, and transport-independent communication.

It is designed to let small devices, bridge nodes, and higher-capability controllers participate in one system while keeping routing, messaging, and application behavior clearly separated.

    * Learn how MOSH bridges application behavior to carriers and protocols.

===== What MOSH Is =====

MOSH is organized in layers:

  * ''MOSH'' defines smart-home and node behavior
  * ''IMC'' provides the message and carrier abstraction between layers
  * ''MTRP'' provides routing and multi-transport packet delivery
  * ''Hardware/Transports'' provide the physical communication paths

This separation allows the system to grow without tightly coupling application logic to any single radio, board, or transport.

===== Project Status =====

MOSH is under active development.

Some older pages may describe behavior or architecture that has since changed. When in doubt, prefer:

===== Notes =====

  * Legacy or outdated documentation may be retained for reference during development.
  * Protocol and architecture pages are being updated gradually toward the current design.
