Welcome to OpenEmbedded

Welcome to OpenEmbedded, the build framework for embedded Linux. OpenEmbedded offers a best-in-class cross-compile environment. It allows developers to create a complete Linux Distribution for embedded systems. Some of the OpenEmbedded advantages include:

• adopted as the build system for the Yocto Project in March 2011.
• support for many hardware architectures
• multiple releases for those architectures
• tools for speeding up the process of recreating the base after changes have been made
• easy to customize
• runs on any Linux distribution
• cross-compiles 1000's of packages including GTK+, Qt, the X Windows system, Mono, Java, and about anything else you might ever need
