Workflows for App Development
2024-12-04 , kirkstone

There are many different ways that an application developer may go about building their application. One could work natively to write code, test, and commit then use bitbake to build from a recipe. Or one could use an SDK or build directly on the target itself. For deployment one could use packages, containers, or some other method for transferring the file over the network to the target. One could even use an emulator, like QEMU, for fast iterations without the difficulty introduced by physical hardware. I will explain the various options and illustrate which may be best suited for your preferred workflow.
