Hello everyone 👋🏻 I’ve published today [an article about getting Swift files and applications running on a Raspberry Pi](https://swifttoolkit.dev/posts/r-pi). It covers setting up a raspberry pi and access to it, installing Swift via Swiftly, building and running locally, and a subject I was excited about: cross compilation on a Mac to Linux. Please let me know your thoughts. Huge thanks to @jessezamora for his help! ---

This is great. Thanks very much. One small typo. In para 2 > “some tips on hot to setup” ---
