Raspberry Pi Connect
Les Pounder dreams of working from a hot beach, but fears sand may break his Raspberry Pi. Perhaps Raspberry Pi Connect is the answer?
IN BRIEF
Raspberry Pi Connect is a web-based interface to remotely control one or many Raspberry Pis using VNC or a remote shell interface. The web interface provides a means to administer a plethora of Pis and we can use the Raspberry Pi Camera and the GPIO in a web browser using our favourite apps.
If you want a remote desktop session on the Raspberry Pi, your choices are some form of RDP or VNC. But Raspberry Pi has been beta-testing Raspberry Pi Connect, a web-based means to remotely control one or many Pis from your browser. Raspberry Pi Connect runs on all models of Pi, from the Zero to the Pi 5. We tested on a Pi 5 4GB.
