Getting Started with Reference Design Toolkit (RDK) Open Source
summary
RDK is a Yocto-based, pre-integrated open source stack that claims 80 million devices deployed and splits into RDKB (routing, Wi‑Fi, DNS, remote management), RDKV (DRM, playback, Dolby MS12) and RDKC (IP cameras). The codebase uses repo to checkout the rdk-next branch, sync, select environment and run bitbake; builds require about 100 GB build disk. Runtime uses a modular CCSP model with a CCSP message bus (TR‑181 data model, protocol agents, component registry) and produces a flashable image.
