Just Enough Raspberry Pi…

… to be dangerous.

Just Enough Raspberry Pi aims at providing a low stress method of experimenting with super cool computer hardware in the form of the Raspberry Pi. We'll look at the different versions, peripherals and operating systems. We'll also check out some 'power-ups' to get more from the Pi and cover some basic Linux use. It covers models up to and including the Pi Zero W and Wheezy and Jessie flavors of Raspbian.

If you've heard about the Raspberry Pi educational computers you may know that they provide a fantastic method to learn about using a computer and developing skills that go beyond the basics.

What sort of things will we learn?

Good question!

What sort of versions of the Raspberry Pi are there?

What hardware do I need to get it up and going?

What sort of operating systems are there and how do we install them?

How do I do [Insert any number of cool things]?

Whatever the reason, hopefully you can find the answer here.

Is this book for you?

It's not written for experts. It's put together as a guide to get you started if you're unsure about how to make the first move with a Raspberry Pi.

Why has Just Enough Raspberry Pi been written?

Because in the process of learning things, it's a great way to remember them if you write them down :-).

Writing about how to do cool stuff with computers means that we're accumulating ways to help ourselves out when the going gets tricky. Making a book out of the information is a no-brainer since that way more people benefit from the process.

I hope you get something out of the book, please excuse the sometimes light-hearted conversational manner in which we approach the topic and enjoy the Raspberry Pi!

Enjoy.
