This course targets engineers who wish to use the yocto project and openembedded to develop their systems matching their exact requirements and supporting their particular. Electron is an open source project maintained by github and an active community of contributors. You have to compile the library manually with openembedded.

To do so im using yocto and the 5 layers provided by digi all based on the jethro version of yocto. Mainjs will initialize the gui and load indexhtml which contains the interfaces visual components. And mystylecss which defines the appearance of the interface elements.

Github is where people build software. More than 50 million people use github to discover fork and contribute to over 100 million projects. Check the following article on how to setup the openembedded build system for your module.

It is connected to two other files.

Electron tutorial more information about electron can be found on its web site.

Each command creates a sub directory with all the files required to make the application work and a demo electron.

Bsp 28 with bsp 28 libxss1 is not part of the angstroem feeds anymore.

Meta clang see this meta. Im trying to cross compile electron on the digis connectcore6. Indexjs which contains commands to control the led.

The yocto project provides an integrated environment to develop and debug custom embedded linux systems similar to the commercial embedded linux development environments. Building yocto linux for edison.

Openembedded core you dont have to build the whole bsp but only the missing libxscrnsaver. Electron uses web pages as its gui so you could also see it as a minimal chromium browser controlled by javascript.
