SYNOPSIS
========
**iwd** [*options* ...]
DESCRIPTION
===========
Daemon for managing Wireless devices on Linux.
The iNet Wireless Daemon (iwd) project aims to provide a comprehensive
Wi-Fi connectivity solution for Linux based devices. The core goal of
the project is to optimize resource utilization: storage, runtime memory
and link-time costs. This is accomplished by not depending on any external
libraries and utilizes features provided by the Linux Kernel to the maximum
extent possible. The result is a self-contained environment that only
depends on the Linux Kernel and the runtime C library.
OPTIONS
=======
--version, -v Show version number and exit.
--help, -h Show help message and exit.
