Start programming Minecraft today! Raspberry Pi is a small credit-card sized computer that can be programmed to do anything from create a music player to use voice control to be able to open your garage door. There is a Minecraft version adapted for the Raspberry Pi, and this book focuses on the introduction and basics to Minecraft: Pi Edition.
