-Welcome
-=======
-
-Welcome to the Yocto Project Overview and Concepts Manual! This manual
-introduces the Yocto Project by providing concepts, software overviews,
-best-known-methods (BKMs), and any other high-level introductory
-information suitable for a new Yocto Project user.
-
-The following list describes what you can get from this manual:
-
-- `Introducing the Yocto Project <#overview-yp>`__\ *:* This chapter
- provides an introduction to the Yocto Project. You will learn about
- features and challenges of the Yocto Project, the layer model,
- components and tools, development methods, the
- :term:`Poky` reference distribution, the
- OpenEmbedded build system workflow, and some basic Yocto terms.
-
-- `The Yocto Project Development
- Environment <#overview-development-environment>`__\ *:* This chapter
- helps you get started understanding the Yocto Project development
- environment. You will learn about open source, development hosts,
- Yocto Project source repositories, workflows using Git and the Yocto
- Project, a Git primer, and information about licensing.
-
-- :doc:`overview-manual-concepts` *:* This
- chapter presents various concepts regarding the Yocto Project. You
- can find conceptual information about components, development,
- cross-toolchains, and so forth.
-
-This manual does not give you the following:
-
-- *Step-by-step Instructions for Development Tasks:* Instructional
- procedures reside in other manuals within the Yocto Project
- documentation set. For example, the :doc:`../dev-manual/dev-manual`
- provides examples on how to perform
- various development tasks. As another example, the
- :doc:`../sdk-manual/sdk-manual` manual contains detailed
- instructions on how to install an SDK, which is used to develop
- applications for target hardware.
-
-- *Reference Material:* This type of material resides in an appropriate
- reference manual. For example, system variables are documented in the
- :doc:`../ref-manual/ref-manual`. As another
- example, the :doc:`../bsp-guide/bsp-guide` contains reference information on
- BSPs.
-
-- *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.

-Other Information
-=================
-
-Because this manual presents information for many different topics,
-supplemental information is recommended for full comprehension. For
-additional introductory information on the Yocto Project, see the
-:yocto_home:`Yocto Project Website <>`. If you want to build an image
-with no knowledge of Yocto Project as a way of quickly testing it out,
-see the :doc:`../brief-yoctoprojectqs/brief-yoctoprojectqs` document.
-For a comprehensive list of links and other documentation, see the
-":ref:`Links and Related
-Documentation <resources-links-and-related-documentation>`"
