Issue #232 - Enigma
Hey there,
What a week for resources! We’ve launched two new free OctaPi projects, plus a sackful of free Christmas-themed tutorials for Scratch, Python, and Raspberry Pi, so you have no excuse not to spend your weekend having some fun with digital making.
Before you start, update your operating system with our newest releases of Debian or Raspbian Stretch. The Debian release comes with a rather nifty piece of software that allows you to access a Pi Zero’s GPIO pins from a PC or Mac. (Never fear, you can also install this tool on a Pi.)
Have a great week, and we’ll catch you next weekend.
Peace,
Alex
