Linux embedded and Yocto Project in-person training course
We are glad to announce a new Linux embedded 🐧and Yocto Project in-person training course in partnership with Toradex. The course will be in English 🇬🇧 and will take place in Bergamo – Italy.
Thanks to our partner Toradex who is sponsoring this event, participants attending this course will bring home a Verdin iMX8M board for free!
This course, offered in partnership with Toradex, is designed for engineers and professionals working with embedded systems, particularly those seeking to integrate Linux and the Yocto Project into new projects.
Over four days, participants will gain hands-on experience using the i.MX8M CPU, delving into embedded Linux system architecture, configuring and building the Linux kernel and Device Tree, and leveraging open-source components for system development.
The course also covers the Yocto Project, with practical labs focused on creating layers, configuring recipes, and following best practices.
At the end, attendees will be able to manage embedded Linux projects, build systems with Yocto, and confidently handle system building and application development.
Target Audience
This course is ideal for:
- Engineers looking to use the Linux and Yocto system in new embedded projects.
- Individuals supporting customers in developing embedded systems.
Over four days, the course combines theory with practical labs to:
- Familiarize you with the architecture of an embedded Linux system.
- Teach you how to configure and build Linux kernel and Device Tree.
- Show you how to leverage open-source components to implement system features.
- Familiarize you with the Yocto Project architecture.
- Learn how to create layers, configure recipes and images.
- Show you how to implement the Yocto Project best practices in a real environment.
By the end of the course, you will be able to:
- Manage a project using embedded Linux.
- Set up, configure and deliver a Linux embedded system generated with Yocto Project.
- Handle everything from system building to application development.
Details about the course
The course is divided into 4 full days, each lasting 7 hours.
The sessions will alternate between presentations and practical demonstrations conducted by both the instructor and the participants on real hardware provided during the course.
Several activities with the hardware board are planned for participants during the in-person course.
These demonstrations will use a real platform based on the i.MX8. However, although this board is used for live demonstrations, the course content is widely applicable and relevant regardless of the specific hardware platform used in your projects.
