Requirement of Ubuntu or windows

For completing the projects is Ubuntu required or it can be done in the windows

There is not any specific requirement that you need windows only or ubuntu only. It all depend on you. Windows operating system is generally found. Ubuntu is also good OS as it is totally virus free. If you still need ubuntu then you can install it as it is free. Or you can Dual boot windows and linux if you have good specs PC.

Ubuntu is not necessarily required for doing the projects mentioned in the training course. Windows is perfectly fine too. But if you have Ubuntu on your laptop/PC, it will be beneficial for you when you do projects related to Interfacing sensor over VPS. No need to create any account on the DigitalOcean for creating a private server. Just download all the required python libraries on your Ubuntu OS itself and proceed. But for Windows, you will have to do all of the above. This training explains well how to use both the tools. I used DigitalOcean inspite of having Ubuntu VirtualBox on my laptop just out of curiosity and I have no regrets so far. You can try them too.

Ubuntu is required because python 3 is usually in built you just need to open terminal and type in the python commands. But you can also download python 3 for windows from here:-https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ .Second alternative would be to install virtual machine such as Virtual Box:- https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads or VM Ware:-https://www.vmware.com/in/products/workstation-pro/workstation-pro-evaluation.html and download the image(.iso) file for the ubuntu:- https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop.

Help me create a bootable USB, I want to install Windows 10 on my system. From where should I download the iso file.

@jeffkdanies You can get official windows 10 iso file from Microsoft website. Also if you need to create bootable USB drive easily, one way is that you can use RUFUS software.

You can use either Ubuntu or Windows it Basically depends on you. But the thing is that Ubuntu is an open-source Operating system and is free to use so most of the organizations use Ubuntu or any other Linux Derivatives.

Hello @pritammohapatra41,

No, Ubuntu is not the only way to complete projects. Everything can be done in WindowsOS.
As you go on lectures will direct you how to complete all projects.

So, don’t worry and just go for it.

Thank you.

hi you can use any operating system for completing your project even u can use mac.os the thing mac.os or window they are all paid version so the cost for server is high so Linux (Ubuntu) is open based software its totally free of cost… that why most of the company use linux as os
