[LEDE-DEV] LEDE/OpenWrt firmware wizard

[Moritz Warning]

Hi Alberto,

I would parse this site https://lede-project.org/toh/views/toh_fwdownload once using node and generate the data needed.
This should be no issue in JavaScript, so there is no need to have a better formatted data.

Thanks,
Moritz
