Raspberry Pi's are "single-board and modular computers or micro controllers, built on the Arm architecture, often running a Linux operating system."
To help out with Raspberry Pi projects at PPM, post your ideas and comments on our Slack #electronics channel.
All our members can work on their Raspberry Pi projects at PPM without any additional required training (Level 1).

Tips
The Raspberry Pi was originally going be a computer that could only run the Python language.
(That is how it got the second half of its name.)

- Five Ways To Run a Program On Your Raspberry Pi At Startup
- Rotate the Raspberry Pi screen
- To find out which shell you're using, run the command
echo $SHELLorps $$ - List/check installed fonts
fc-list | grep "DejaVu Sans" - If the Pi 3 B+ seems slow or unresponsive, check the green light at the edge of the board for activity
- WolframMark Benchmark Results:
- Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (2017), 1400 MHz: 0.14
- Raspberry Pi 400, 1800 MHz: 0.23
- Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (2018), 2000 MHz: 0.24
- To find out which shell you're using, run the command
Shut down the Raspberry Pi properly:
(just pulling the plug could cause memory card corruption.)
- ☐ Use the graphical user interface (GUI), or
- ☐ Use the command:
sudo shutdown -h now
