Summary

In this first chapter of this book, we saw how to configure our Raspberry Pi Zero board so we can use it in later chapters of this book. We saw what components were needed for the Pi, and how to install Raspbian so we can run software on our board. Finally, we installed Node.js, which we will use in the whole book to run home automation projects on our Pi.

In the following chapter, we are going to dive into the core topic of the book by learning how to measure data from a sensor.
