12 | Welcome to the Yocto Project Concepts Manual! | ||
13 | This manual provides conceptual information that helps you | ||
14 | better understand the Yocto Project. | ||
15 | You can learn about Yocto Project components, | ||
16 | cross-development toolchain generation, shared-state cache, | ||
17 | and many other concepts. | ||

24 | <emphasis>Complete Step-by-step Instructions for Development Tasks:</emphasis> | ||
25 | Instructional procedures reside in other manuals within | ||
26 | the Yocto Project documentation set. | ||
27 | For example, the | ||
28 | <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;'>Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual</ulink> | ||
29 | provides examples on how to perform various development | ||
30 | tasks. | ||
31 | As another example, the | ||
32 | <ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_SDK_URL;'>Yocto Project Application Development and the Extensible Software Development Kit (eSDK)</ulink> | ||
33 | manual contains detailed instructions on how to install an | ||
34 | SDK, which is used to develop applications for target | ||
35 | hardware. | ||

40 | manual. | ||
41 | For example, system variables are documented in the | ||

54 | <emphasis>Detailed Public Information Not Specific to the | ||
55 | Yocto Project:</emphasis> | ||
56 | For example, exhaustive information on how to use Git | ||

58 | Git Documentation than through the Yocto Project | ||
59 | documentation. | ||
