Meeting the BitBake Tool
With this chapter, we will now begin our journey of learning how the Yocto Project’s engine works behind the scenes. As is the case with every journey, communication is critical, so we need to understand the language used by the Yocto Project’s tools and learn how to get the best out of these tools to accomplish our goals.
The preceding chapters introduced us to the standard Yocto Project workflow for creating and emulating images. Now, in this chapter, we will explore the concept of metadata and how BitBake reads this metadata to make its internal data collections.
