             BitBake is a program written in the Python language.
-            At the highest level, BitBake interprets metadata,
-            decides what tasks are required to run, and executes
-            those tasks.
-            Similar to GNU Make, BitBake controls how software

-            GNU Make does this using "makefiles".
-            BitBake uses "recipes". BitBake
-            extends the capabilities of a simple tool like GNU Make
-            by allowing for much more complex tasks to
