project-wrt - ultra-lightweight telegram bot

this bot created for controlling openwrt routers, written in pure lua, designed for routers with extremely limited storage (takes less than 1.5MB along with dependencies),

no python, no heavy node.js environments. just lua, uclient-fetch, and ASCII-art aesthetics.
