Kano’s Educational Operating System Now Runs on the Raspberry Pi Zero
Kano’s Raspberry Pi kit is a bit of a fan favorite , although it’s a bit pricey. The vibrant orange colors combined with a custom operating system built for learning make it appealing to kids learning to program. They have now updated their OS to work with the much cheaper new Raspberry Pi Zero .
The operating system works much the same as before, it contains many different educational programs for children to learn everything about electronics and programming. But this version is made specifically for the Zero, so it will work well even though the Zero is less than a pint compared to it. It’s worth checking to see if you have any kids you teach coding and don’t need the full Kano kit to use the operating system.
