This contriware Raspberry Pi course will teach you how to use, program and understand the Raspberry Pi. This course will help you by using practical examples, visual images, videos and audio clips to explain many of the concepts used for learning the Raspberry Pi.
What is contriware?
Contriware is the term given to documents, audio, videos and anything that makes up the content of the course which has been supplied by various contributors in the Raspberry Pi community. The best way to learn is to help others and in return everyone will be able increase their knowledge and participate. It is a good feeling knowing that your content will expand the globe and will be part of history.
What will you get from this course?
You will learn about the hardware and software that makes up the Raspberry Pi and as a bonus, you will be learning Linux without any additional effort. Most Raspberry Pi operating systems are based on a type of Linux operating system. The commands and functionality that you will learn for this course will apply Linux.
To keep up with the course, the friendly boys and girls at Pixel Coffee Limited have given us free coffee to create more tutorials. Please visit their site to help us keep going.
What else will you learn?
You will learn how real-world servers are set-up and maintained including web servers and FTP servers. You will also have a basic understanding of system administration which again can be applied to Linux in the real world.
Finally at the end of this course you will also be able to program in numerous languages including Python, C, C++, Java and more. We will also demonstrate the concepts and code behind game programming.
There is a lot to learn but with your help, contributions and even a very comment we can share the knowledge for free and keep computers fun, open and available to everyone.

Next Raspberry Pi Week 1 – Overview >> |
This looks great. Thanks.
Thank you. Can't wait to get going on these tutorials.
Great thanks.
Unfortunately the only module I was able to open was the one about WiFi. your tutorial was very helpful to me. I am running windows 7 and Ubuntu 13.10. I am teaching about the raspberry Pi to seniors and once I figure out how to read your modules I would like to print them out to my seniors.
Hello,
Can you explain what issue you had? Is it a problem with the menu?
Thanks
When I get a few minutes I will create PDF files for you which should make it easier for you. Let me know your thoughts and feedback because I would love to improve on these so that everyone benefits. I'm glad they are helping someone:)
I can't wait to start. Thank you. I will supply feedback when i complete the raspberry pi courses.
The Raspberry PI tutorial has a broken link connecting 'Week 7 Day 2 Beginning Python Programming ' to the next lesson in this series 'Beginning C programming'.
Hence I was unable to continue this tutorial from this point.
Can you fix this broken link?
Thanks
Mike Faulkner
Hi Mike,
I will be updating this tutorial today and putting the link back in. Thanks very much for letting me know. I should have the rest of the days available by tonight also.
I appreciate all the work you have put into this project.
THANKS

Hi Mike,
Thank you very much for the donation. As you are the first to donate you will receive a free copy of the book that compliments this web site when I have finished it.
Many thanks
Great lessons. Thanks from Ireland.
greetings from India. great stuff. thanks a lot.
I recently discovered a nice cloud tool to visually program my Pi. Not sure who these guys are but I signed up for free I could start programming my Pi wireless: wyliodrin.com
not sure if there other programming tools like this but this was really useful for a beginner like me. I am so much into learning about this stuff
Why can't u make a PDF or Doc so we can download?
Really appreciate for sharing, but PDF or DOC is more good :)
keep it up!
Very Great place to start doing something different.Have engineering background but after school life was busy working for companies mainly on Software Systems development and maintenance.
I have to admit I am fascinated about how much has changed technologically speaking.
Thank you from Pakistan
I am beginner, i eager to start this tutorial.
