thanks

Could you please be a bit more specific about your issue? Have you taken a look at the documentation? Was there something not clear? Do you have a use case that's not described well enough? Did you have problems building the project? On what host system, for what platform, using which tool chain? Could you not run it? Could you not write your own JS app or module for or run them on it?

I think it's a perfectly valid question.

I have 7 years of experience as a Tizen developer, but am having trouble figuring out where to start from.

commented

I would recommend to start with something simple, e.g. a write a "hello world" apllication. Then you can continue with using modules to do something (e.g. read / process a file, create output), then write modules to help you.

commented

Is there a comprehensive guide for running this framework on each of the supported devices?

I think that might help.

On a fresh Ubuntu 16.04, I followed the following steps:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gbs
reboot
git clone https://github.com/Samsung/iotjs.git
cd iotjs/
./config/tizen/gbsbuild.sh

Result

What might I be missing?

Thanks.

@jiwonpark please check the in source documentation which is up to date. https://github.com/Samsung/iotjs/tree/master/docs

commented

Yes this is the guide I followed and build failed..

commented

By any chance, do I have to cook up my own .gbs.conf?

commented

No you don't. It should work out of the box. Unfortunately I am not familiar with Tizen, so I cannot help much. @rtakacs @hs0225 could you take a look on this?

P.S.: The CI uses docker, so you can also use the existing docker image if you want a quick workaround.
docker pull iotjs/ubuntu:0.8

commented

The build issue seems to be specific to my PC.

@LaszloLango Thanks for the help!
