in reply to Is Perl on the Raspberry Pi worth it?

I've long wanted to get my feet wet with Raspberry Pi, but don't know where/how to start. If I could jump in and bootstrap to Perl, that would make the difference. Maybe people like me can be your audience? People who want to do it but don't know where/how to start?

    Well, first of all, do you have any specific ideas that you'd like to use the Pi for? That's a really good start.

    Your mention of not knowing where to start is a good one; in my docs/FAQ/tutorial, I've got the information, but looking at it from your perspective has made me realize that I need to go further in this aspect, possibly with a quick "get up and going" guide, and a "here's one/two/three very basic projects for beginners".

    Specific thoughts on what you might like to do would be helpful as I said :)

      Everything and nothing? :-) I guess I'd start with something involving home security. Maybe for remotely monitoring events in the home. So it would have to integrate with sensor devices of various kinds. And a camera.

        Hopefully you didn't buy one yet, they released the Pi 4 today.

        Update: fixed link. Thanks haukex.
