Buildroot maintainer Peter Korsgaard
gave a presentation about the long history of the build tool for embedded
Linux systems at the 2026 Embedded
Linux Conference Europe
. In it, he covered more than just the past 25
years, looking at the current status of the project as well as what to
expect in Buildroot’s future. It was an interesting view inside this long-running project that
has been a mainstay of the embedded-Linux world throughout almost all of
this century.
