Summary

  • Adds Joshua Watt as a guest author (Software Developer at Garmin, OpenEmbedded TSC member, Yocto Project TSC member): data/authors.yml, content/authors/jwatt/_index.md, photo at assets/images/joshua_watt.jpg.
  • Publishes Part 1 of a 5-part deep-dive series: How Yocto Generates SBOMs Behind the Scenes — covers the high-level architecture and the case for build-time SBOM generation.
  • Series footer in Part 1 lists all five parts with (coming soon) placeholders for Parts 2–5; subsequent stacked PRs update those placeholders with real links as each post lands.

This is the first in a stack of 5 PRs (one per series post). Each later PR is based on the previous branch.

Test plan

  • Visit /authors/jwatt/ — confirm Joshua's photo, bio, LinkedIn and GitHub icons render
  • Visit /2026/05/05/yocto-sbom-deep-dive-introduction/ — confirm post renders correctly with author byline and series footer
  • Confirm /blog/ lists Joshua's post
  • Confirm Hugo build succeeds with no warnings or errors (hugo --buildFuture)
  • Confirm dprint markdown lint passes (bun run lint)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Adds Joshua Watt as a guest author (Software Developer at Garmin,
OpenEmbedded TSC, Yocto Project TSC) and Part 1 of a 5-part series
on how Yocto generates SBOMs during the build itself, covering the
high-level architecture and motivation for build-time SBOM generation.

Subsequent parts (SPDX 2.2 pipeline, SPDX 3.0 overview, VEX, production
config) follow in stacked PRs and update Part 1's series footer with
real links as each part lands.
