High quality layers
10-30, 12:35–13:05 (Europe/Dublin), Intermediate Room

How to create high quality, easy-to-use layers with the Yocto Project.


Constructing a layer for the Yocto Project is fairly easy, but with the flexibility that our build system allows, without meaning to do so it is possible to create layers that are difficult for others to reuse practically. In this presentation the OpenEmbedded TSC will help illuminate some of the dos and dont's around constructing a reusable layer.
