Summary

This first chapter provided an overview on how the Yocto Project works, the core components that form it, such as Poky, OpenEmbedded-Core, and BitBake, and how they work within the Yocto Project.

In the next chapter, we will practice the workflow of the Yocto Project with different steps to download, configure, and prepare the Poky build environment in order to generate our first Poky image for the Raspberry Pi.
