How to build images and the SDK

With Docker already installed on your system, build the SDK and images for your preferred machine:

$ git clone https://github.com/carlesfernandez/yocto-geniux
$ cd yocto-geniux
$ ./geniux-builder.sh thud 21.08 zedboard-zynq7

The generated yocto-geniux image also provides an interactive mode that allows users to make changes, experiment, fine-tune, and generate their own custom images and SDKs according to their specific requirements in a virtualized environment. Please check the README.md file of that repository for instructions.
