+The `meta-agl` layer provides the minimal set of software +to boot an AGL Distribution system. +You use this layer as the minimal core on which to build AGL profiles. + +**NOTE:** The `meta-agl` layer does not include a reference UI. + The reference UI is included as part of the + [`meta-agl-demo`](./meta-agl-demo.html) layer. + Furthermore, `meta-agl` does not include additional components, such + as security, which are part of the + [`meta-agl-extra`](./meta-agl-extra.html) layer. + +## Layer Dependencies + +* poky + > URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky + > branch : rocko + +*
