Yocto is an open-source collaboration project that provides templates, tools, and methods to help create custom Linux distributions for embedded systems. It enables developers to build and maintain their own Linux distributions tailored specifically to the unique requirements of their embedded devices. | |||
Yocto is essentially composed by a framework | Yocto is essentially composed by a framework called OpenEmbedded. This framework utilizes metadata, known as recipes, to specify how software packages should be built and integrated into the Linux distribution. Recipes are organized in layers, which allow for modularity and customization. | ||
