The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized single-board computer. It has been developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of stimulating the teaching of basic computer science in schools.

The Raspberry Pi Foundation recommends Raspian Wheezy as standard operating system. However, alternative systems may be used.

In the Raspian operating system it is easy to install Lazarus and Free Pascal. In order to do this simply open a terminal window and type:

 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get upgrade
 sudo apt-get install fpc
 sudo apt-get install lazarus

This installs a precompiled version of Lazarus on the Raspberry Pi. Installation may take about 30 minutes, but major parts take place automatically. After installation you may instantly start Lazarus via the LXDE development menu.
