+ Welcome + + + Welcome to the Yocto Project Overview and Concepts Manual! + This manual introduces the Yocto Project by providing concepts, + software overviews, best-known-methods (BKMs), and any other + high-level introductory information suitable for a new Yocto + Project user. + + + + The following list describes what you can get from this manual: + + + Introducing the Yocto Project: + This chapter provides an introduction to the Yocto + Project. + You will learn about features and challenges of the + Yocto Project, the layer model, components and tools, + development methods, the + Poky + reference distribution, the OpenEmbedded build system + workflow, and some basic Yocto terms. + + + The Yocto Project Development Environment: + This chapter helps you get started understanding the + Yocto Project development environment. + You will learn about open source, development hosts, + Yocto Project source repositories, workflows using Git + and the Yocto Project, a Git primer, and information + about licensing. + + + Yocto Project Concepts: + This chapter presents various concepts regarding the + Yocto Project. + You can find conceptual information about components, + development, cross-toolchains, and so forth. + + + + + + This manual does not give you the following: + + + Step-by-step Instructions for Development Tasks: + Instructional procedures reside in other manuals within + the Yocto Project documentation set. + For example, the + Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual + provides examples on how to perform various development + tasks. + As another example, the + Yocto Project Application Development and the Extensible Software Development Kit (eSDK) + manual contains detailed instructions on how to install an + SDK, which is used to develop applications for target + hardware. + + + Reference Material: + This type of material resides in an appropriate reference + manual. + For example, system variables are documented in the + Yocto Project Reference Manual. + As another example, the + Yocto Project Board Support Package (BSP) Developer's Guide + contains reference information on BSPs. + + + Detailed Public Information Not Specific to the + Yocto Project: + For example, exhaustive information on how to use the + Source Control Manager Git is better covered with Internet + searches and official Git Documentation than through the + Yocto Project documentation. + + + +
+ +
+ Other Information + + + Because this manual presents information for many different + topics, supplemental information is recommended for full + comprehension. + For additional introductory information on the Yocto Project, see + the Yocto Project Website. + If you want to build an image with no knowledge of Yocto Project + as a way of quickly testing it out, see the + Yocto Project Quick Build + document. + For a comprehensive list of links and other documentation, see the + "Links and Related Documentation" + section in the Yocto Project Reference Manual. + +
