Getting Started

You will need to have a recent version of Rust installed. Any version of Rust that supports version 0.12.0 or later of rppal should work but the release version 1.51.0 of Rust have been used during initial development. Earlier versions might work as well but have not been tested.

Development can be done on any OS that Rust supports but the only expected output target is a Raspberry Pi running a Linux OS. All initial development has been done with a combination of a laptop running Windows 10 and a 4GB Raspberry Pi 4 running the Raspberry Pi OS (Raspbian).
