weston init does have mechanism for such usecases see weston.ini. I would 
recommend to read through weston docs.

[James Abernathy]

Just an observation.  the FAQ link that Autif did looks like a How Do I,
which is the section in the Wiki right after the FAQ.  Does that matter to
anyone?

 Hi Song,

 I thought that I already updated the wiki. It seems like you created an
 extra page. _scripts is missing from the link. It should be there.

 Source:
 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Category:FAQ

 What I added days ago:

 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_change_and_add_startup_scripts

 What you added (which I think should be deleted):
 https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/FAQ:How_do_I_change_and_add_startup

 Agree?

This rather narrow answer is only useful if you are running a MatchBox desktop.
There are many other deployment scenarios which would require a different 
approach.

 Hi Autif, thanks a lot for providing the answer here. Since no one is
 showing any objections here, I updated the wiki page with your answer

 Please let me know if there is any suggestions or concerns.


 This rather narrow answer is only useful if you are running a MatchBox
 desktop.
 There are many other deployment scenarios which would require a different
 approach.

That is true.

However, All over the Yocto Project's website - the common bitbake
commands for an image is either core-image-minimal or core-image-sato.
(core-image-sato-sdk also uses matchbox).

minimal does not start any app - not counting daemons and gettys

If the user chooses another window manager - they are/should be on their own.

I just assumed that we are not trying to document the init process
(bootloader, kernel, initrd, inittab, init.d etc)

We are trying to answer a less experienced developer to replace the
default window manager with their own app

There is a chance that I am not aware of the default application being
other than matchbox. Can you please provide me some counter example?

Then it should be made clear that this answer only covers that scope.
The Wiki page title implies that it is a more generic answer.

I can think of many, most that are headless (no window environment at all)
