Building on an Open foundation of information, using Open Source Hardware and Software

Like this article/how-to on setting up WordPress and LAMP stack on your Raspberry Pi (aka any system 😉 more about this.

Build first, secure/repair/modify/improve/maintainbest, prepare for the worst case, best outcomes for all to remain truly Open.

Initially in the early days of technology, there were “makers, breakers, creators of code” and in the end are we not all creating life in our own unique way?

I am sharing this knowledge and information with the hopes that it will help someone else, around the globe, somehow and I giving this Openly and Freely to everyone else.

-Enjoy

This is a start. A company planting a seed using the Raspberry Pi, a small single-board computer. Open source at the heart of this idea and some much more 🙂

Our project, Dreaming About Open Hardware, aka NOC-in-a-Box™ shares a deep kinship of its heritage due to Open Source 🙂
