1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving user input identifying a class of an embedded system to be developed for a target device;
selecting, from a plurality of packages available for installation, a set of packages corresponding to the class of the embedded system;
integrating the set of packages into a root file system;
receiving user input identifying at least one application to be used with the embedded system;
integrating one or more packages associated with the identified application into the root file system, wherein an image of the root file system is to be loaded to the target device.
