And my Anbernic runs something called EmuELEC.
Just as good idea as Linux from scratch, both work to learn the process of distro building.
Gentoo is slightly more abstracted.
I don't think EmuELEC will add much, because it's aarch64 specific and you'll probably want to run your distro on a x86 device.
I think the best approach would be to start with making a simple game engine, which would be a normal Linux/Windows/etc application. The following step would be to get it bootable.
