28 BitBake is a program written in Python that interprets the metadata used by the OpenEmbedded
29 build system.
30 At some point, developers wonder what actually happens when you enter:
31 </p>
32<pre class="literallayout">
33 $ bitbake core-image-sato
34 </pre>
35<p>
36 </p>
37<p>
38 This chapter provides an overview of what happens behind the scenes from BitBake's perspective.

42 BitBake strives to be a generic "task" executor that is capable of handling complex dependency relationships.
43 As such, it has no real knowledge of what the tasks being executed actually do.
44 BitBake just considers a list of tasks with dependencies and handles metadata
45 that consists of variables in a certain format that get passed to the tasks.
