This is an class 10 16GB micro SDHC card that is pre-installed with the NOOBS operating system for the Raspberry Pi. This SD card and adapter is perfect for a Raspberry Pi first timer or beginner while still providing convenience for anyone with more experience with the platform. This little card allows you to start using your Raspberry Pi straight out of the box without worrying about imaging it on your own.
NOOBS is an easy operating system installer which contains Raspbian. It also provides a selection of alternative operating systems which are then downloaded from the internet and installed.
Note: The NOOBS image will need to be updated if you plan to use this card on Raspberry Pi 3 B+, Zero, and Zero W boards. You can download an updated image in the Documents section below.
If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.
Skill Level: Rookie - You will need a better fundamental understand of what code is, and how it works. You will be using beginner-level software and development tools like Arduino. You will be dealing directly with code, but numerous examples and libraries are available. Sensors or shields will communicate with serial or TTL.

Booted right up!
Great product.
Originally one of these things was given to me and then I in turn gave a kit to my brother to work on with his kids. Everyone loves it, including me.
I made a dojo cam. I think my brother and his kids are doing math problems.
