Yocto - Its all Open source... oh wow!! That is what people exclaimed about.
To me... Yocto?? What is that??
Later I started building my understanding in the yocto and now it is my dream to establish career in or towards yocto.
In embedded OS, building image and packaging them is very important and different companies use their own build frame work to do the same. Being a part of such a team, I would admit I had some knowledge in packaging concepts. Then I was opened up to yocto.
Yocto is end to end frame work to create such images for Embedded devices. Mind it, I did not mention it as Build frame work but just mentioned it as a framework. Of course It also has a build framework in it(which is called POKY) but that is not all.
Yocto comprises of build framework, packaging features and many more advanced features. All leading companies starting from Intel and Windriver, feel proud to be elusive members of yocto community.
Yocto has also started delivering kernel. In addition it also has virtual deployment utility - qemu. Yocto also has some test frameworks inside it. If you want anything more, it is very simple to plugin your utility with yocto and start using it. And hence in a nut-shell, it can be claimed as yocto has it all.
This is the best place for anyone new to start with

Bugs in yocto can be looked at

This post is just to make the name "yocto" familiar.
I will post detailed findings in upcoming posts.
