It is a capable computer that can perform tasks that involve spreadsheets, word processing, and games. It also plays high-definition video. If you are looking for a way to set up a low cost web server, primarily to be used as a testing environment or to store files, then Raspberry Pi is perfect for you.<\/p>\n<p>This book demonstrates Raspberry Pi\u2019s ability to perform tasks that a mini computer would, in an efficient manner using a minimum number of power resources. You can connect your Raspberry Pi to the Internet at home to share files, host multi-player games, or even host a website.<\/p>\n<p>Starting with the pre-requisites and installation of Pi, you will learn how to setup Pi as a web server with MySQL. This book progresses with building Pi as a file server and knowing about using the various file transfer protocols. It also guides you to install Bitcoin\/ Litecoin and set up Bitcoin wallet. You will learn how to stream a webcam to watch movies in HD or camera module.<\/p>\n<p>Complete your journey by learning how to use Pi as a game server by using basic console commands to get graphical content.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"approach\">\n<div>\n<h2>Approach<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>This is an engaging, easy to follow guide for developing a wide range of server projects with Raspberry Pi<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"audience\">\n<div>\n<h2>Who this book is for<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This book is targeted towards all Raspberry Pi enthusiasts who are interested in exploring the potential of Pi as a server.
