That’s often my favorite choice, I don’t care about good practices when I’m the only one to use the device.īy the way, if you don’t have a budget to afford a course for now (if you just got your Raspberry Pi stuff, I completely understand), you can join Skillshare for a free 14-day trial. You can also choose to follow “the good practices”, or keep only the simplest solution to remember. So yes, it’s possible, but you need to find the solution that fits your needs.
