In this chapter, we will understand the basic concepts involved in the Poky workflow. Let's get our hands dirty with steps to download and configure, prepare the Poky build environment, and bake something usable. The steps covered here are commonly used for testing and development. They give us the whole experience of using Poky and a taste of its capabilities.
