We want to develop the Internet radio application for the Raspberry Pi in the same way as for a PC. We change the source code in QtCreator and run the application. QtCreator cross-builds the application on the PC for the Raspberry Pi, deploys it with SSH to the Pi and runs it on the...

Qt Embedded Systems – Part 1: Building a Linux Image with Yocto
In Part 1 of the series on Qt Embedded Systems, we build a custom Linux image with Yocto for the Raspberry Pi 3B. When we power on the embedded device, it starts an Internet radio application – called Cuteradio. This QML application is very simple: it can only play a single, hard-wired station. Despite...
