yotta is a tool from ARM mbed, to make it easier to build better software with C++ and C by re-using modules. Publish your own modules to the yotta registry to share them with other people, or re-use them privately in your own projects.
Whenever you build a project with yotta, you first select a yotta target. Targets describe the platform that you're building for (such as an embedded IoT development board, or natively for Mac or Linux), and provide all the information that yotta and modules you're using need to configure themselves correctly for that platform.
yotta is written in python, and is installed using pip. Install yotta itself by running:
pip install yottaNote that yotta needs several non-python dependencies to be installed correctly (such as a C++ compiler). The detailed installation instructions include a full guide.
Exactly which other dependencies (such as compilers and other build tools) are required will also depend on the yotta target description that you intend to use, so please be sure to also check the target description's own documentation.
