Welcome to '''[http://www.openembedded.org 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 [http://yoctoproject.org Yocto Project] in March 2011.
** Official Press release - [https://www.linuxfoundation.org/press/press-release/yocto-project-aligns-technology-with-openembedded-and-gains-corporate-collaborators Yocto Project Aligns Technology with OpenEmbedded and Gains Corporate Collaborators]
* 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

User talk:Kaiwan

Crofton: Welcome!

User:Kaiwan

Crofton: Creating user page for new user.

(From my Amazon Author page):
Kaiwan Billimoria taught himself BASIC programming on his Dad's office IBM PC when he was in the 9th grade (back in 1983). The urge to learn, hack and master at the level of the "bare-metal" was born there!
After completing his B.E. in Information Science & Tech, he went to work: helping build an antivirus product using assembly and C on a DOS platform. He thought DOS was awesome, until one fateful day he "discovered" the joys of Unix! (from none other than Richard Steven's iconic original "UNIX Network Programming" book and by working on 'C' applications on SCO Unix). Many years later, working on the creative side (multimedia, web design, HTML), he "re-discovered" Free Unix on the PC - in the form of Linux of course.
Kaiwan has plumbed the depths of the Linux system programming stack - right from mastering bash scripting, to system programming in userspace with 'C', to deep OS-level kernel internals hacking and debugging. Along the way, he has worked on several commercial and opensource products and projects. His (opensource) contributions include drivers for the mainline Linux OS, and several small self-founded projects hosted on GitHub.
His passion for Linux and actively programming on it by working on industry and opensource projects and products, feeds well into his other passion - for two decades now, Kaiwan has been teaching engineers the intracacies of the Linux OS, and how to design and implement code (for robustness and security).
It doesn't hurt that he is an ultra-marathoner too (several marathons, a few 50k's and a couple of memorable 100k runs. Update: am running a lot less now, but still love it!).
