Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero, the fast way!

Setting up Pi Zero OTG - The quick way (No USB keyboard, mouse, HDMI monitor needed)

More details - http://blog.gbaman.info/?p=791

For this method, alongside your Pi Zero, MicroUSB cable and MicroSD card, only an additional computer is required, which can be running Windows (with Bonjour, iTunes or Quicktime installed), Mac OS or Linux (with Avahi Daemon installed, for example Ubuntu has it built in).
1. Flash Raspbian Jessie full or Raspbian Jessie Lite onto the SD card.
2. Once Raspbian is flashed, open up the boot partition (in Windows Explorer, Finder etc) and add to the bottom of the config.txt file dtoverlay=dwc2 on a new line, then save the file.
3. If using a recent release of Jessie (Dec 2016 onwards), then create a new file simply called ssh in the SD card as well. By default SSH i

VSCode GitHub Markdown Theme

GitHub Markdown Theme for Visual Studio Code

This CSS stylesheet allows you to preview markdown files in VSCode using GitHub's mardown theme. This CSS was taken directly from the official GitHub Markdown repo. I replaced their top-level .markdown-body class with the body tag so it would work in VSCode, and added styling for the html tag to match GitHub's fixed-width container.

Instructions

  1. Copy the CSS file to your computer
    Copy the github-markdown.css file below to your computer. You can put it anywhere you want, but I chose to put it in the same folder as my VSCode settings file.

  2. Edit your VSCode settings
    If you want to use this theme for all of your projects, then edit your User Settings file. If you just want to use this them
