Raspberry Pi is a small, multi-use computer.
With Node.js you can do amazing things with your Raspberry Pi.
What is the Raspberry Pi?
The Raspberry Pi is a small, affordable, and amazingly capable, credit card size computer.
It is developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, and it might be the most versatile tech ever created.
Creator Eben Upton's goal was to create a low-cost device that would improve programming skills and hardware understanding.
Due to the small size and price of the device, it has become the center of a wide range of projects by tinkerers, makers, and electronics enthusiasts.
Raspberry Pi and Node.js
The Raspberry Pi has a row of GPIO (General Purpose input/output) pins, and these can be used to interact in amazing ways with the real world. This tutorial will focus on how to use these with Node.js.
Write Raspbian OS Image to MicroSD Card
Before we can start using our Raspberry Pi for anything, we need to get a OS installed.
Raspbian is a free operating system based on Debian Linux, and it is optimized Raspberry Pi.
Download the latest Raspbian image from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ to your computer.
We use the "LITE" version in our tutorial, since we are setting the Raspberry Pi up as a headless server (we will connect to it through SSH, without having a keyboard/display connected to it). You can use whichever version you want, but this tutorial is written with the "LITE" version as its focus.
Insert the MicroSD memory card in your computer (via the SD adapter if needed). Open File Explorer to verify that it is operational.
Etcher is a program for flashing images to memory cards. Download and install Etcher from: https://etcher.io/
