== Required software ==
See the [https://docs.yoctoproject.org/brief-yoctoprojectqs/index.html Yocto Project Quick Build] guide for details about getting started with OpenEmbedded.
 
See also [https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ref-manual/system-requirements.html System Requirements] for supported GNU/Linux distributions.
Before being able to build you will need to install a fairly short list of required software on your host system.
 
'''Note:''' for a headless (i.e. non-graphical / server) machine you can skip installing SDL and xterm, these are optional; however without SDL you will not be able to run graphical OS images within QEMU.

== Setup Instructions ==
 
At this point you have a number of different alternatives:
 
=== Standalone OE-Core setup ===
 
As OE-Core can be used to build working images entirely on its own, you can get started with it immediately.  
 
See '''[[OE-Core Standalone Setup]]''' for instructions.
 
=== Systems based upon OE-Core ===
 
There are a number of other systems that make use of the OE-Core metadata which provide their own set of setup instructions. Here are some links to "getting started" information for these:
