'''Theme''' – improved developer experience
At the highest level, the Yocto Project consists of three major components:


* Bugs fixed from 0.9, better "out of box experience"
* A '''build system''' - based primarily on the Bitbake project and including other associated projects such as Pseudo
* Linux 2.6.37
* '''Metadata''' - which includes classes, recipes, files and patches which, when taken together, build a working Linux system (OpenEmbedded-Core and other layers)
* gcc 4.5.x where x = 1 or 2
* A '''developer experience''' - methodologies and tools for developing embedded devices, which is mostly based on Eclipse, but also includes Hob and other tools.
* New layer supporting Linaro toolchain and kernel
* Yocto Image Creator
* Improved build performance (better than 0.9)
* Improved fetcher
* Additional kernel tracing features for the target
* Improved documentation – for kernel tools and application development
* Yocto Eclipse plug-in improvements and demo videos
* Application development tools installation script
* BSPs for additional embedded platforms


=== Post 1.0 – target release date, fall 2011 ===
The project will continue to do regular releases to support development and bug fixes in all of these areas.

Yocto Project future roadmap

At the highest level, the Yocto Project consists of three major components:

  • A build system - based primarily on the Bitbake project and including other associated projects such as Pseudo
  • Metadata - which includes classes, recipes, files and patches which, when taken together, build a working Linux system (OpenEmbedded-Core and other layers)
  • A developer experience - methodologies and tools for developing embedded devices, which is mostly based on Eclipse, but also includes Hob and other tools.

The project will continue to do regular releases to support development and bug fixes in all of these areas.
