Raspberry PI SD Card Provisioning with Windows 10 IoT Core — Adding Packages to the Existing FFU Image

Appx Package

Introduction

In my previous article, we have seen how to create a basic FFU image which can be flashed to SD cards. Today, we will see how we can package our application and add this to our existing IoT Core OS image. Doesn’t it sound good? If you haven’t read my previous articles on the same topic, I strongly recommend you to read so that we can make sure that we both are in the same boat. For now, let’s just start doing some amazing things. Let’s just start then.

You can always see this article on my blog here.

Let’s start doing the PowerShell commands now then.

Prerequisites
