Book Description
From beginner to expert in Raspberry Pi. Learn useful Linux skills and practice multiples project with step-by-step guides How To Become A Raspberry Pi Expert Even If You Are Not Already A Linux Guru? The Raspberry Pi is a device that can scare many people when they are new to this. How can a cheap electronic circuit with a mysterious operating system be a good idea for me? Yes, the Raspberry Pi is a small computer (close to a credit card size) that runs mostly on Linux and that can be plugged to a standard screen, mouse and keyboard. So, this is probably a little different from what you're used to. That's why it may be difficult or at least not motivating to get started on Raspberry Pi. But don't worry, with this book you will get everything you need for a good start, whatever your current level is. About the author Patrick Fromaget graduated from higher school in computer science. He started as a web developer, before specializing in system administration. He has always been passionate about IT and has managed Linux servers for over 15 years. In 2018, he launched the RaspberryTips.com website to share his passion for the Raspberry Pi and help other people to progress. More than 100 tutorials have been written on the site, on various subjects. From the start, the site has enjoyed growing success and a YouTube channel was also launched on the subject in 2020, to help the most visual. What is inside the book? This book is a challenge you take, to lead you from the beginning towards mastering the Raspberry Pi device. The course is divided into 30 steps. The idea is to make one little step a day to be an expert in 30 days. In each step you discover a new concept, go through the details and then go to practice. Each day is a new, progressive step towards your goal. In the beginning you learn more about the hardware, then you will learn how to use the operating system (Raspbian). The second part of the book is more about step-by-step projects, programming, and other operating systems and software. So, it's really a book for all audiences: - If you don't know anything yet, you can read the book in order - If you already have bases on Raspberry Pi or Linux, some chapters can be browsed quickly - And even if you already have a correct level, you will inevitably find information there to go even further Ready to take off? Linux is a skill in great demand in business, and learning it on a different computer is the best way to learn it. The Raspberry Pi was created to teach IT and programming in schools, and it's never too late to learn. To go through this learning process, you need a companion, and you have found it here. This book is a must-have for anyone who wants to improve its skills on Raspberry Pi and Linux in general. Buy it today to become a Raspberry Pi expert in 30 days!

Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Microcontrollers, like the RP2040 at the heart of Raspberry Pi Pico, are computers stripped back to their bare essentials. You don't use monitors or keyboards with them, but program them over USB to take their input from (and send their output to) their input/output (IO) pins. Using these programmable connections, you can light lights, make noises, send text to screens, and much more. In Get Started with MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico, you will learn how to use the beginner-friendly language MicroPython to write programs and connect up hardware to make your Raspberry Pi Pico interact with the world around it. Using these skills, you can create your own electro-mechanical projects, whether for fun or to make your life easier. This book shows you how to: Get started with Raspberry Pi Pico Work with various electronic components Create your own programmable electronic contraptions Work with Programming Input and Output (PIO) for low level, timing-critical projects Learn the Raspberry Pi Pico pinouts for hooking up components Use the I2C and SPI protocols to connect to components By the end of the book, you'll know how to create your own programmable electronic contraptions. What you do with them is up to you.

What You Will Learn Set up your Raspberry Pi Zero with the operating system, networking, and different interfaces Get a hands-on introduction to Linux, Python, and shell scripts with the Raspberry Pi Zero Become a master at driving GPIOs and controlling relays, motors, transistors, buzzers, audio, read switches, and interrupts with the Raspberry Pi Zero Control GPIOs using the web interface and Node.js Connect displays, LED matrixes, analog sensors, and digital sensors Hack the Ethernet on the Raspberry Pi Zero Make your Raspberry Pi Zero an IoT-based sensor node and remotely monitor your data In Detail The Raspberry Pi Zero, one of the most inexpensive, fully-functional computers available, is a powerful and revolutionary product developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The Raspberry Pi Zero opens up a new world for the makers out there. This book will give you expertise with the Raspberry Pi Zero, providing all the necessary recipes that will get you up and running. In this book, you will learn how to prepare your own circuits rather than buying the expensive add–ons available in the market. We start by showing you how to set up and manage the Pi Zero and then move on to configuring the hardware, running it with Linux, and programming it with Python scripts. Later, we integrate the Raspberry Pi Zero with sensors, motors, and other hardware. You will also get hands-on with interesting projects in media centers, IoT, and more. Style and approach This recipe-based book will ensure you gain an intermediate-level knowledge of the Raspberry Pi Zero. This book contains comprehensive illustrations with specific schematics for each circuit diagram.
