The autotools foo looks fine, but your recipe could be a bit nicer.

1. SRCREV is only needed for sources stored in an SCM (svn, git, ...)
2. You should put PV in the recipe name, like this: myfirstapp_0.1.bb. Then
the PV variable is automatically populated with that value.
3. For sending the recipe upstream it has to be in a subdir of the
shr-.../openembedded/recipes folder
4. bitbake -b does only build that recipe, if you add some DEPENDS those
aren't build, so just do bitbake myfirstapp if it's stored in the recipes
folder.
5. For building from local sources you can also use "inherit srctree" as it's
used in conf/local-builds.conf
That are all comments for now :) Nice work.
