“I bought the Raspberry Pi Zero W to test offboarding workloads from my main laptop to something unencumbered by Windows! I followed a few guides on setting up the device as a USB Ethernet device, and found this very useful, however, my plan of using any Docker images on the Raspberry Pi Zero W were somewhat scuppered by the fact that most Docker images don't support ARMv6 architectures.
Raspberry Pi OS installs fine on the device, and it's suitable for VNC based access of simple applications and websites - but certainly isn't suitable for what I was hoping to use it for - at least for now! That said, for around £10 I certainly can't complain that I've wasted money on it - there will be other projects I can use this for in the mid-to-near future - I just need to have a think about what I'll use it for!
Coupled with the Solderless Zero Dongle for Raspberry Pi Zero board, it is easy to connect to a computer as a RNDIS Ethernet device, and may have many other options available to you!”
“Is quite small compared to a normal Raspberry Pi.
TO note that it has a small size HMDI connector and only micro USB connectors, so you'll need USB hun in order to connect normal devices like a keyboard or a webcam.”
“One header less Pi Zero W delivered pronto, one can't ask for any better than that.
The board went into a box along with an IR camera to make a doggie cam.
Always a pleasure to deal with Pimoroni, harr me maties :)”
