Build your own

To our surprise, people started to fork routersploit not because they were interested in the security of embedded devices but simply because they want to leverage our interactive shell logic and build their tools using similar concept. All these years they must have said: "There must be a better way!" and they were completely right, the better way is called Riposte.

Riposte allows you to easily wrap your application inside a tailored interactive shell. Common chores regarding building REPLs was factored out and being taken care of so you can focus on specific domain logic of your application.
