Raspberry Pi Video Course for Beginners (Mac and PC) review
A 25-lesson video course from first start to home automation with the Raspberry Pi, $26.99, with four lessons free to watch.
Worth it
A practical, concrete course with a published lesson list and free sample lessons, at a fair price. It does not cover the Raspberry Pi 5, and the order form does not state a refund window, so the free lessons are the place to decide.
