Jim Hall The popularity of the Raspberry Pi It is also a handy file server over SSH so that I can make quick backups of my important files. When I'm not experimenting, my Raspberry Pi acts as a print server to put my non-WiFi printer on our home network. Just shutdown, swap microSD cards, reboot, and immediately I'm working on a dedicated test system.

The extra microSD doesn't cost that much, but it saves a ton of time for the times when I want to experiment on a second image. I have two microSD cards, which allows me to have one plugged into the Raspberry Pi while I set up the second microSD to do whatever experimenting I want to do. If I think I'm going to do something risky, I use a backup boot environment. If I want to create a new website or experiment with a new software tool, I don't have to bog down my desktop Linux machine with a bunch of packages that I might only use once while experimenting. Experimentation with the Raspberry Piįor me, the Raspberry Pi has been a great tool to add extra development resources on my home network. I have a hunch that some of these fantastic builds will spark an idea for others. We all have such different lived experiences, so I asked our community of writers about the most curious use of a Raspberry Pi they've ever encountered. We use a lot of open source when solving problems of all sizes, and that includes Linux running on the supremely convenient Raspberry Pi. And curiosity is the basis of our problem-solving. Recently, I was on a call where it was said that the open source community is a combination of curiosity and a culture of solutions.
