Useful Torizon Guides for Project Development

For the impatient, here is a list of articles that show you how you can easily integrate, pack, and load a customized TorizonCore image for your application:

• TorizonCore Builder Tool: Is the utility responsible for preparing a given TorizonCore image for production programming, so you can easily customize the default TorizonCore image to your needs.
• Pre-provisioning Docker Containers onto a TorizonCore image: Imagine that you want to create a TorizonCore image preloaded with the container applications you've designed, so you can just flash TorizonCore on a compatible module, and as soon as the image starts, your container applications will start automatically. This article shows you how to do that with TorizonCore Builder Tool.
• Splash Screen on TorizonCore: On simple touch for graphical applications is the Splash Screen of your company and application logo. This article shows you how to easily set a Splash Screen image for your module in your custom TorizonCore image, using TorizonCore Builder Tool.
• Signing and Pushing TorizonCore Images to Torizon OTA: TorizonCore is ready for OTA updates, which is handled through Torizon OTA. This article shows how you can sign and push a customized TorizonCore image to Torizon OTA, so you can deploy that image to your devices remotely.
