# Why Rugpi?

While many excellent tools are already available for building images, updating systems, and managing state, integrating them into a robust setup can be challenging.
Rugpi strives to simplify this process by bundling all essential functionalities into a cohesive package, allowing you to focus on what matters most to you and your users.
We believe that building innovative devices shouldn't be as complicated as it often is today.
Although Rugpi may offer less flexibility and configurability than standalone solutions, it excels at delivering a robust base for your device right out of the box.

In case Rugpi does not suit your needs, here are a few standalone solutions that you may want to consider:

**Building Images:**
- [Debos](https://github.com/go-debos/debos): Build images based on different binary distributions.
- [edi](https://www.get-edi.io): Build images based on Ubuntu and Debian.
- [Yocto Project](https://www.yoctoproject.org): Build images from source.
- [Buildroot](https://www.buildroot.org): Build images from source.

**Update Solutions:**
- [RAUC](https://rauc.io): Safe and secure OTA updates for embedded Linux.
- [Mender](https://mender.io): Over-the-air software updates for IoT devices.
- [SWUpdate](https://sbabic.github.io/swupdate/swupdate.html): Software updates for embedded systems.
