      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
