Why these Server Projects

There is a ton of Raspberry Pi server projects that you’re able to do. These servers are typically better suited for home or development use, where you don’t expect to be getting a ton of traffic.

Setting up a server on the Pi is a great way to learn more about LAMP stack, PHP, MYSQL, and other server technologies.

You can also set up some small private servers for games such as Minecraft. A massive limitation with getting gaming servers going on the Pi is usually the lack of compatible code and not enough resources to guarantee excellent performance.

These are just a few types of servers that you’re able to get running on the Pi. There is so much more that we will be slowly covering in the future. If you want to be kept up to date, then be sure to follow us on social or sign up to the mailing list.
