Tech: Linux, Raspberry Pi

A graphical web interface of PiHole.

Lessons learned:

  1. Lots of debugging and installing operating systems.
  2. Learned some networking.
  3. Installing and using Armbian.

Description:

This was a summer 2023 project that involved setting up a Banana Pi to use PiHole on. The banana Pi uses a debian linux operating system called Armbian.

PiHole is an open source application that I did not make that monitors internet traffic and blocks trackers, advertisements or anything else you want blocked. After installation it acts as a DNS server and is online 24/7.
