Installation

Clone this repository using git clone https://github.com/vadrianc/raspberry-pi-scripts.git

Usage

You'll need a Raspberry Pi computer with Raspbian OS installed. Make sure you have Bash installed before running the scripts. Using the terminal, navigate to where you cloned the repository, type the name of the desired script such as ./<script-name.sh> and hit enter.

Since Raspbian is a Debian-based computer operating system, the scripts are expected to run on any other Debian-based operating system.
