Out of the Lab and into the Field
Build better.Maintain longer.Learn together.
The Yocto Project Developer Meetup brings developers together for technical exchange about layers, board support, build workflows, security, and products in the field. Share a problem you solved, an approach you can demonstrate, or a question the community can explore together.
We welcome talks, demonstrations, and interactive sessions from developers at different organizations. Focus on practical engineering: methods, evidence, and lessons that others can use. Proposals should relate to Yocto Project or OpenEmbedded and be educational in nature.
