| BitBake Documentation
| =====================
|
| |
|
| BitBake was originally a part of the OpenEmbedded project. It was inspired by
| the Portage package management system used by the Gentoo Linux distribution. In
| 2004, the OpenEmbedded project was split the project into two distinct pieces:
|
| - BitBake, a generic task executor
| - OpenEmbedded, a metadata set utilized by BitBake
|
| Today, BitBake is the primary build tool of OpenEmbedded based projects, such as
| the Yocto Project.
|
| The BitBake documentation can be found :doc:`here <bitbake:index>`.
