Krill

Decentralized process control & automation, built for makers.

Run a krill server on a Raspberry Pi, a laptop, or a rack box. Open the app on any device on your network. Wire sensors, schedulers, calculations, GPIO and dashboards into a live swarm — no cloud, no accounts, no rented brain. The architecture pros use for SCADA, scaled down to fit on a workbench.
