Ventoy is a tool that allows you to create a bootable USB drive for multiple ISO files.
Just copy your ISO files onto the drive and boot it.
__ventoyu__ is a utility that can be used to install or even update ISO files on the USB drive.
Besides ventoyu also contains features like set up a new USB drive with the Ventoy software, manage ISO sources or modify Ventoy attributes on your USB drive.
ventoyu contains a configuration file (JSON format) with all sources where ISO files can be downloaded.
The __ventoyl__ class can help you to talk to your Ventoy device using Python. More information here: [Wiki: ventoyLIB](https://github.com/mawigh/ventoyu/wiki/ventoyLIB)
