Description

This four-day training program blends theoretical instruction with practical exercises to introduce participants to the Yocto Project.
It addresses common questions such as:

• Is it truly necessary to utilize a distinct toolchain, library, or package version for every GNU/Linux project, along with a different workflow?
• Can you guarantee that the development environment remains consistent across all developers and suppliers, enabling the production of identical builds over the next decade or more?
• Can the YP assist in identifying the software licenses governing the packages you utilize?

Practical sessions are conducted on target hardware (for example, Beagle Bone Black Rev. C - http://beagleboard.org/BLACK). Upon completion, you will be provided with a Docker image containing Ubuntu 14.x and all necessary dependencies, along with examples, allowing you to engage with the course material in your own laboratory settings. Please be aware that this course does not serve as an introduction to Embedded GNU/Linux. You are expected to already understand how Embedded GNU/Linux operates, including the configuration and building of the GNU/Linux kernel and its drivers.

Who should attend?

This workshop is designed for individuals who already use GNU/Linux in their projects and have likely heard of the Yocto Project but have hesitated to explore it in depth or found it challenging to use. It is ideal for those unsure about how their daily workflow can be integrated into the YP or who find the YP overly complex, wondering why the additional effort is necessary when previous methods were (supposedly) simpler. After the training, you will be equipped to determine whether the YP meets your needs. The workshop targets software engineers, development engineers, system engineers, testers, administrators, and other professionals with a solid understanding of Embedded GNU/Linux.
