Getting started with the Raspberry Pi

Set up your Raspberry Pi and explore what it can do

  Step 1 : Introduction

In this project you will connect up a Raspberry Pi computer and find out

what it can do.

What you will make

The Raspberry Pi is a small computer that can do lots of things. You plug

it into a monitor using HDMI and attach a keyboard and mouse.

Step 2 : What you will need ?

Hardware

• A Raspberry Pi computer with an SD card ( Class 10 SD card with minimum 16 GB )
• A monitor connected to Pi via HDMI cable
• A USB keyboard and mouse
• A power supply ( More than 5V - 2.5 A )
• An ethernet cable (optional)

Software

• Raspbian, installed via NOOBS

→  Installing Raspbian with NOOBS                                                      Downloading NOOBS                                                                                             Using NOOBS is the easiest way to install Raspbian on your SD card.                                                           -- To get hold of a copy of NOOBS. Visit : https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/                                       -- You should see a box with a link to the NOOBS files. Click on the link ( Arrow Shown in Below Pic )
