In this chapter, we've looked at how to set up the Raspberry Pi 3B+ and the Raspberry Pi Zero W as a normal desktop computer. We also learned how to connect a Raspberry Pi to a laptop wirelessly via a Wi-Fi network. You can now control a Raspberry Pi remotely from your laptop without needing to connect the Raspberry Pi to a keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
In the next chapter, we will first look at some basic commands for maneuvering around the Raspberry Pi OS. We will install a C++ library called Wiring Pi onto our Raspberry Pi, and gain an understanding of the pin configurations for this library. Finally, we will write our first C++ program and upload it wirelessly to our Raspberry Pi.
