Easily Generating Debian-Based Embedded Systems
summary
Isar generates reproducible Debian-based images by combining Debian packages with a BitBake task engine, producing bootable raw images for x86, ARM64 and RISC‑V; the demo builds an EFI Debian Bookworm image for the RPi4b example using cast container build.yaml, creates a root filesystem, flashes an SD and runs a small hello-isar binary successfully; features include sstate cache, snapshot-based reproducibility, support for Secure Boot and AB/OTA updates via swupdate and CIP kernels with 10‑year LTS.
