| 10 | This manual provides information that lets you begin developing applications |
| 11 | using the Yocto Project. |

| 15 | The Yocto Project provides an application development environment based on |
| 16 | an Application Development Toolkit (ADT) and the availability of stand-alone |
| 17 | cross-development toolchains and other tools. |
| 18 | This manual describes the ADT and how you can configure and install it, |
| 19 | how to access and use the cross-development toolchains, how to |
| 20 | customize the development packages installation, |
| 21 | how to use command-line development for both Autotools-based and |
| 22 | Makefile-based projects, and an introduction to the |
| 23 | <trademark class='trade'>Eclipse</trademark> IDE Yocto Plug-in. |
| 24 | <note> |
| 25 | The ADT is distribution-neutral and does not require the Yocto |
| 26 | Project reference distribution, which is called Poky. |
| 27 | This manual, however, uses examples that use the Poky distribution. |
