5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic reference for beginners to expert yocto devolopers
Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2023
Verified Purchase
Fantastic reference. I wish I had this when I was learning yocto. It also goes VERY in depth into bitbake, adding layers, and the in depth workings and options of building custom recipes by hand. Highly recommend. When I have a yocto project this lives on my desk for months until it's done. This would have cut a month or two of my first yocto projects. Tell your bosses that and get the to pay for this reference manual.

Yocto is pretty easy until you hit some weird issue that shouldn't happen but is. This will help you fix that instead of having to ask online communities or trying to rely on web guides referencing ancient versions of yocto.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for Yocto Developers and Software Managers
Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2023
As a long-time Yocto user, I recommend this book to engineers starting with Yocto or already advanced in the topic. The authors considered every aspect of a successful product design with Yocto leading to MVP (Minimum Viable Product). It is a must-read to refresh the memory or learn a new concept on this ever-popular topic. The book's last section includes some best practices that anyone can use to evaluate a current or future project.

I enjoyed the many command lines in this book to navigate Yocto and its environment. The examples align with Yocto LTS Kirkstone.

When it comes to embedded devices, leveraging QEMU and x86 is critical. This book takes the reader into the details of setting this up. This excellent practice can make a project successful, saving time and money!

The Yocto temporary build directory needs clarification for beginners. This book goes into great detail about the structure of this dynamic folder and its content. I found that part very valuable.

Ones might find the chapter on generating native SDK critical, especially when sharing a Yocto environment with other developers involved in different parts of the project.

Chapter 15 is where the "rubber meets the road" with a selection of standard engineering and development platforms like Raspberry Pi 4 or BeagleBone Black. The authors also introduced another platform based on RISC-V - a cheap computer option.

I recommend this book to engineers and software managers to evaluate the complexity of a Yocto project and help with planning. Every chapter is touched individually during the development and release phase. The reader can take a chapter at a time as it relates to each other. A more experienced user can jump through the book to capture the "golden nugget" or new information. I enjoyed the summary at the end of each chapter as a summary.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Guide to the Yocto Project: Ideal for Beginners and Seasoned Users
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2023
The Yocto Project is known to have a slow learning curve, even though the project offers great documentation. The complexity of learning how to build a Linux system, the multiple releases of the project, and the fast-changing additions provided by a resourceful community of developers can be daunting tasks for the inexperienced.

This book provides a very good starting point for new users of the Yocto Project. It focuses on core and basic aspects of the project, such as those covered in chapters 1 - Meeting the Yocto Project, 2 - Baking Our First Poky-Based System, 4 - Meeting the BitBake Tool, 9 - Developing with the Yocto Project, 11 - Exploring External Layers, 12 - Creating Custom Layers, 13 - Customizing Existing Recipes, and 15 - Booting Our Custom Embedded Linux.

On the other hand, a seasoned Yocto Project user can leverage new tips, advice, and guidelines found in chapters 6 - Detailing the Temporary Build Directory, 7 - Assimilating Packaging Support, 10 - Debugging with the Yocto Project, 14 - Achieving GPL Compliance, 16 - Speeding Up Product Development through Emulation - QEMU, and 17 - Best Practices.

Chapter 17 - Best Practices provides interesting practices that can help increase the quality of projects, reduce time-to-market, and significantly reduce project costs.

I particularly liked the remarks about QEMU and licensing compliance in chapters 16 - Speeding Up Product Development through Emulation - QEMU and 14 - Achieving GPL Compliance. The authors make excellent remarks on those subjects.

Overall, the book is an excellent addition for professionals, students, and developers looking to increase their skills in the Yocto Project. It is a good companion to the official Yocto documentation, helping to facilitate the learning process.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best for Experience Embedded Linux Devs
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2023
I appreciate that this book specifies that it's for intermediate and advanced embedded Linux developers in order to teach them to use Yocto to save time and energy. This book does a great job of that by starting with a useful introductory chapter, talks about how to set up your environment, and advanced topics for setup. The second half of the book digs deeper into using the tool itself and getting the most from it.

The entire book is hands-on for maximum effect for the reader. The overall project is covered in enough detail to make this book useful but so much that it's overwhelming. This is the book that will make your life easier and more productive. But it's up to the reader to get the most out of this book. The book opens the door, but it's up to you to walk through.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concise yet practical introduction to Yocto Project for Developers
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2023
This covers everything you need to know to get started using Yocto quickly, on any platform. Throughout the book, it focuses on understanding the basics of each tool, directory, layer, or other concept very concretely. I loved the layout and typography. That made each topic easy to grasp and apply. Chapter 17, Best Practices was the highlight for me. I sense that the authors are sharing hard-won pearls of wisdom gained through experience. Overall, this book's simplicity and focus can help any team get up to speed quickly with Yocto Project development.
