Hello,
Yocto Project/Openembedded can nowadays be considered the 'de facto'
standard among the automated generation systems of embedded linux
distributions.
Experienced users appreciate the features offered by Yocto Project and
its complete customization that allows to adapt it to any specific
requirement.
However, from the beginner's point of view, the situation is a bit
more complicated due to the Yocto Project's particularly steep
learning curve.
The tools that can support the development with Yocto Project are
Toaster, that allow the configuration of the builds through a web
interface, and the 'extended SDK' (eSDK), based on Devtool which
allows the system to be tuned or extended without editing
configuration files.
Probably anyone who has tried to use Yocto Project will certainly have
had the desire at least once to have a feature not available.

For this reason it might be interesting to discuss it together.
- What aspects of Yocto Project you consider not useful or misleading?
- What functionality would you like to have in Yocto Project?
- What do you think is missing?

Take part to the survey at this link: http://bit.ly/2kXvdsd
and let's continue this discussion at OEDAM and Yocto Project Summit 2019

P.S. if you think that can make sense to cross post this to OE mailing
lists, feel free to share.
If you think this is off-topic or doesn0t comply to any YP(OE ML
polici, please ignore it and apologize me.
