Below, you will be able to find all the software we used to make Wi-Pi work.
Our developer, Jasleen, decided Python was the best coding language for the custom-coded program that runs on this device. Besides the friendly syntax of the Python coding language, every member of the group was also taught the language as part of our courses and could assist in the development process if necessary, making Python the only logical choice.
The Operating System on the Wi-Pi device is the latest version of the Raspberry Pi OS. Our group settled on this fork of Linux as it is a lightweight, unintrusive Operating System that can be configured to boot directly into our custom-coded program, ensuring that there is no confusion by any party when starting the device for the first time.
Below you will find a list of all the other software we used to create everything for Wi-Pi.
