Re: [yocto] [OE-core] Information about non-traditional uses of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded
I use yocto to build an immutable disk image for several architectures of Kubernetes servers (currently armv7, aarch64, x86-64). It's basically a CoreOS Container Linux clone, except smaller and more portable. I like yocto/OE's powerful cross-compilation, minimalism, read-only rootfs, A/B image upgrades (I'm using rauc), etc. https://gitlab.com/containos/containos Previously I've used yocto/openembedded to build: - minimal x86-64 docker images, and pre-built package repository ( https://github.com/anguslees/boxfactory - no longer maintained now that alpine is a thing). - an early Android C/C++ sdk development environment (ie: nativesdk) - before the official "Android NDK" became useful. I added support for `repo` tool, bionic, etc - I was even doing canadian-cross to build the SDK on Linux/glibc, to run on win32/mingw, and compile for armv7/bionic :P Unfortunately this got killed by politics and never saw the light of day, but it was used to build the early releases of the "ScummVM" Android app (possibly the first native app on the Android marketplace). Indeed, I don't think I've ever used it for an actual embedded platform :P - Gus On Thu, 28 Feb 2019 at 07:01, Philip Balister wrote: > During the last OpenEmbedded developer meeting, it became clear that > people are using the Yocto project/OpenEmbedded in spaces outside what > we think of as traditional embedded.

Hi We (qtec.com) use yocto/oe to build industrial vision systems. Today is running on Potato graders, Carrot Graders, Potato 3d cameras, Hyperspectral cameras, Beer analysers, Checkweighers, Screw Counters, Hockey streamers Let me know if you think this is interesting and I can share more detailed info.

Sounds like good potential for a section or chapter in the user docs.
