Set up Raspberry Pi module with default settings
We will talk about the following aspects of setting up the Raspberry Pi module with default settings:
The Power SupplyThe Storage.Input devices.The output display.
These are the minimum components that will help you in setting up the Raspberry Pi module. In addition to these, you can also connect a case, ethernet connection, and more. The following will be the steps to get Raspberry Pi ready:
1] Get the SD Card ready
Get the latest version of NOOBS or RASPBIAN from their official website here. Extract the contents of the downloaded ZIP to the formatted SD Card using your Windows 10 computer.
2] Powering on the Raspberry Pi
To make sure that all the components of the board are safe, you would have to plug in the components in the given order. Insert the SD card where you extracted the files for your operating system. Connect the USB Mouse and then the keyboard. Finally, plug in the display cable not matter if you are using HDMI or VGA. Just plug in any of the optional devices if you want to. And just plug in the power supply and boot it. You will see the following loading screen on the main display. There you go. You will land on this Desktop after a few seconds.
Next, we will be setting up the environment.

Run the Welcome to Raspberry Pi application. It will take you through the setup guide. Select Next to initiate the setup.
Set your Country, Language, and Timezone and then select Next to proceed ahead.
Put up a strong password and select Next again.
Set up your WiFI on the next screen and upon selecting Next, it will check for software updates,
