Can Shorewall be used on VyOS?

Will VyOS still work right if I install Shorewall-lite on it? Shorewall seems like an easier way to setup a network, but VyOS seems pretty great for day-to-day management of a router / firewall. So I was wondering if they are compatible. From what I understand about Shorewall, it just generates a bunch of iptables rules, and VyOS is a Linux dirstro with iptables, so it seems to me that it should work, but I thought I would just check if there were any other caveats about why they are not compatible that I should know about before putting the research into setting something like this up.
