Before beginning installation of the SDK, it is important to prepare the development system with the tools necessary to get the job done. These tools can either be command line interface (CLI) or graphical utilities. Both options are described in this guide.

Table 1: Conventions

The major and minor version numbers will match the version of OE for which the SDK is created.
