It’s a 30-day challenge, where you learn one new thing every day until you become a Raspberry Pi expert. If you are looking to quickly progress on Raspberry Pi, you can check out my e-book here. So, in this guide I’ll show you step-by-step how to do in each case.īut before that, we’ll start by a short explanation on why it’s so important to do this from time-to-time, if you aren’t sure yet.
