What is the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Platform?

The Linksys Smart Wi-Fi platform is the foundation that allows developers to create services and apps that leverage the software stack on the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers and the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi infrastructure. These services and apps give users new experiences anywhere, anytime, at home and on the go. Using the platform and its accompanying SDK, developers can create exciting services and apps easily without having to spend a lot of time writing new code.

Our unique architecture that combines the embedded device and the cloud allows developers to write services and apps in a very agile manner. The platform gives developers a way to authenticate users, provide a secured and persistent connection with the home network, and access a wide variety of functionality and features exposed by the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router in the home. Apps can be written for many different types of consumer electronic devices such as smart phones, smart TVs and tablets.

A comprehensive SDK is available as part of the platform, including all the tools and sample code you need to easily create great services and apps.
