Review: Up-to-date-and comprehensive - The embedded Linux development world is still growing rapidly, and changing just as rapidly. This is obvious to anyone who has tried to find up-to-date information about it on the Internet. Writing a book about it, and binding the book in hardback, is a dicey proposition, because the book will be obsolete before it hits the bookstores. However, having said that, this book does a great job of collecting all of today's relevant information about OE and Yocto and putting it in one place. You can start with a single-board computer like a Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone (those are just two examples), and end up with a working Linux OS after just a few chapters. I highly recommend working through the entire book, in order to develop an intermediate or advanced knowledge of OE, Yocto, and BitBake, the essential tool at the center of it all. The authors acknowledge that some of the content may age rapidly, and they point the user to sources to find updated information. Some readers may argue (correctly) that everything in the book is available for free on the Internet, or (arguably) that the Yocto Project Mega-Manual contains more information than this book contains. But if you want enough information, in one place AND easy to find, to successfully make your first Yocto build and the dozens of variations you will make afterwards, this book may be just what you're looking for. p.s. While Packt offers books and e-books with titles similar to this book's title, I think that this one is superior to Packt's offerings. I say that reluctantly, since I own several Packt books as well. This one's just better.
Review: Excellent - This book got me going in yocto. I had five books before this one, but this is the one that I turn to. Yocto is a HUGE subject and I am amazed Rudy was able to touch on all aspects. Its not comprehensive. That is not possible in book form for yocto, but it covers the main parts with enough detail that you can begin to understand the online documentation and examples. With that said, I absolutely loathe the online docs. How Rudy could transform those into workable material is impressive. FWIW, I met Rudy for the first time at a conference. He helped me out some with my code and he told me about this book. I bought it just to be nice, but I was pleasantly surprised at its quality. I hope to meet him again so I can get him to sign it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great deep-dive into Yocto, some information outdated
*by N***K on October 22, 2018*

I've been writing Yocto recipes for a year or so now. I felt comfortable doing recipes, but a little shaky on doing stuff like setting up a new BSP. This book had some great background information, and also introduced some parts of Yocto that I didn't even know existed (the SDK generator, for example). Some of the information is a little outdated - at the time of this writing, the "build appliance" described in 2.1 doesn't exist any more, and neither does the Hob tool described in 7.6 (and other places). The "depexp" dependency explorer also doesn't exist any more. I wish the book had a little more on building new BSPs from scratch. It talks about how to pull down a vendor's BSP and tweak it, but doesn't have much about to build your very own (how to set the system C compiler, how to configure your target flags, etc). Overall though it was a very helpful book for me, and fleshed out some areas of Yocto that were shaky for me. Worth a read if you're using Yocto professionally and have some gaps in your knowledge.
