Raspbian

Raspbian "Jessie" is the newest stable operating system based on Debian Linux.  It's an update of the super popular Raspbian Wheezy - with myriad bug fixes and tweaks as well as some added features.  We think it's the best Raspbian update yet.  To read more about Raspbian Jessie, check out the raspberrypi.org's blog here!

Jessie is the latest and greatest operating system, but there's some changes that may make older software not work. We also have 4GB "Wheezy" Cards for those who want the classic Raspberry Pi OS

For use with any and all Raspberry Pi computers (Pi 1 models A, B, A+, B+ and Pi 3 model B).

Please note as of Mid Novembter 2016, something changed with the Pi 2 and it will not work with this particular revision. Please pick up a copy of NooBs instead!

Raspbian is a free operating system based on Debian optimized for the Raspberry Pi hardware. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your Raspberry Pi run. However, Raspbian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 35,000 packages, pre-compiled software bundled in a nice format for easy installation on your Raspberry Pi. You can read more about Raspbian here. These microSDHC cards use the new speed “class" rating of Class 4 that guarantee a minimum Data transfer rate of 4MB/sec. Adafruit may ship a Sandisk or Kingston card, both are high quality and come with the same speed class rating.

Adafruit tests and verifies each card before shipment. This image can be downloaded directly from the Raspberry Pi Website Downloads Page.
