- Welcome to the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual!
- This manual provides relevant procedures necessary for developing
- in the Yocto Project environment (i.e. developing embedded Linux
- images and user-space applications that run on targeted devices).
- The manual groups related procedures into higher-level sections.
- Procedures can consist of high-level steps or low-level steps
- depending on the topic.
- </para>

- <para>
- This manual provides the following:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem><para>
- Procedures that help you get going with the Yocto Project.
- For example, procedures that show you how to set up
- a build host and work with the Yocto Project
- source repositories.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Procedures that show you how to submit changes to the
- Yocto Project.
- Changes can be improvements, new features, or bug
- fixes.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Procedures related to "everyday" tasks you perform while
- developing images and applications using the Yocto
- Project.
- For example, procedures to create a layer, customize an
- image, write a new recipe, and so forth.

- Redundant Step-by-step Instructions:
- For example, the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_SDK_URL;'>Yocto Project Application Development and the Extensible Software Development Kit (eSDK)</ulink>
- manual contains detailed instructions on how to install an
- SDK, which is used to develop applications for target
- hardware.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- Reference or Conceptual Material:
- This type of material resides in an appropriate reference
- manual.
- For example, system variables are documented in the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_REF_URL;'>Yocto Project Reference Manual</ulink>.
- </para></listitem>
- <listitem><para>
- 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.

- <para>
- Because this manual presents information for many different
- topics, supplemental information is recommended for full
- comprehension.
- For introductory information on the Yocto Project, see the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_HOME_URL;'>Yocto Project Website</ulink>.
- If you want to build an image with no knowledge of Yocto Project
- as a way of quickly testing it out, see the
- <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_BRIEF_URL;'>Yocto Project Quick Build</ulink>
- document.
