Raspberry Pi Client Only Build

[matt]

I am trying to do a client only build on a Pi. I want to confirm the basic instructions please.

Does this sound right - sorry I am new to Pi?

• Install Raspbian (Does it need a GUI, or can a CLI version work?)

• apt-get update

• apt-get install node npm

• git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

• cd ~/MagicMirror

• npm install

• node clientonly --address 192.168.1.5 --port 8080

Will this do anything to prevent screensaver or powersaver mode etc?

thanks
Matt

Can anyone confirm that these instructions a valid? Also, could client only be run on a pi zero?

@potts-mike well it needs a browser and electron is not available now for pi 0. So you will have to use chrome
