Move devtool doc from extensible to dev manual

2025-02-07T17:52:48+00:00

[YOCTO #13417] devtool is not directly tied to the Extensible SDK anymore, and instructions in there can be split and added to the development manual. This patch is a simple bulk move, except for the following: - Intro added to the devtool.rst document (mostly copy-pasted from the devtool quick reference in the ref-manual). - Figures renamed to remove "sdk-" from filenames. - References to sdk-manual/extensible replaced by dev-manual/devtool.

manuals: document VSCode extension

2024-01-12T11:34:05+00:00

The VSCode extension is now officially maintained and published by the Yocto Project so it should be referenced in the manuals to help users discover it. I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well as the current Toaster references.

manuals: split dev-manual/common-tasks.rst

2022-12-01T19:20:29+00:00

A 500 KB source file is always harder to manage, and can have section title conflicts. So, the "Common Tasks" document is gone and all its constituents are moved up one level. You now have 40 chapters in the Development Tasks Manual. (From yocto-docs rev: 8a45bc469411410020b8e688c137395fcaf3761b) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: improve the width of diagrams

2022-05-10T11:52:35+00:00

Better for EPUB output in particular - Make some diagrams wider when necessary - Remove ":align: center" when we have ":width: 100%" - Update the standards.md files to mention this (From yocto-docs rev: 848ba7bd8984cc3f4bf6b818259865011cde0476) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
