Getting Started

Hardware

You will need a 7 segment 4 display common cathode with 12 pins like this one, 8 x 100 Ohm resistors, some wires, and, of course, a raspberry pi connected on the internet !

You can follow this tutorial made by @raspitv to connect your 4 digits - 7 segments diplay on your raspberry. The project use exactly the same pins, so no need to modify anything in the code !

Setting up the Raspberry Pi

For this project your raspberry need the 3.6 version of Python. If you have raspbian installed on it, you can upgrade your version of python following this tutorial.

You will need also pipenv to run this and install all dependencies. If you don't have pipenv, your can follow this official tutorial to install it. Then make pipenv install to install all dependencies and to create a virtualenv for this project.
