This book will give you a good grounding in getting started with your new Raspberry Pi 3, the tiny budget computer that does more than you could ever believe. We’ll talk about the specs of this credit-card sized computer, how to set it up and how to code it using Python. If you are not au fait with Python, don’t worry because I will give you an overview of the basics, everything you need to know. Lastly, I’ll give you a couple of projects to get started with and a few tips on using your Raspberry Pi 3. Raspberry Pi 3 came out in February 2016 and, tiny and barebones as it is, it is thrashing the competition into oblivion. If you love to tinker, love to build your own devices and love to get your hands dirty with a bit of coding then Raspberry Pi 3 is for you. It’s cheap, it’s cheerful and, with a bit of practice, dead simple to use.
This is a starter guide for those who own Raspberry Pi. Although mine is yet to arrive. I will reread it once I get my hands on Pi 4 and start using it in real-time.
