Which Linux distribution to use???

Linux Distribution/OS consists of linux kernel + software packages targated to solve specific users/business needs like personal computing(Unbuntu), Networking(RedHat), CloudComputing(Rocky Linux), Embedded devices(Debian), Routers(OpenWRT), Secure Mobiles(PureOS)

Build our own Linux Distribution for Embedded products

Custom embedded Linux images are build using build systems like Buildroot, Ptxdist, Scratchbox, Open Embedded & Yocto. 
Yocto project has become the industry defacto to build custom embedded Linux distributions for custom Embedded Devices like Gateways, HMIs, and Edge Computing Devices.
Yocto not only builds custom Linux images but is also used to manage the package's distribution, building SDK for application development & automation of build tests & QA.
