The Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded are widely used across the world for their great capability for building customized Linux distributions and applications for embedded products. However, due to inherent characteristics of the compilation process and toolchain, the build required being executed on a native Linux host, this is sometimes a limitation since Windows is used by most companies employees and in this case can't be used as a development system. The previous statement is no longer true, the Yocto Project can be used under Windows, allowing developers to have easy access to a development system increasing productivity and efficiency. This presentation will guide the audience through the process of creating Linux operating systems and applications on Windows, introducing them to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSLv2), compare usability, performance and include personal experience while performing this task, performing a demonstration of its usage interactively.
