A simple, single page Firefox webkiosk for Raspberry Pi

• (Almost) no need for maintenance
  • Unattended Upgrades
  • No SSH enabled (to enable ssh, you have to execute sudo ufw enable ssh)
• Firefox ESR
• Automatic install script

A Raspberry Pi and a compatible monitor/display (the performance obviously differs between pi generations)

This script has been developed and tested on Raspberry Pi OS Lite Buster (Debian 10).

• Flash Raspberry Pi OS Lite to a SD card (more information: https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/)
• Boot the pi (display required)
• install git (sudo apt-get install git)
• cd to home directory (cd ~)
• clone repository (git clone https://github.com/twihno/pi-kios)
• cd into the setup folder (cd ~/pi-kiosk/setup)
• execute the setup script (sudo ./setup.sh) (SUDO required!!!)
• follow the instructions

The pi reboots after the setup. You can press Alt+F4 to close the browser window and perform various tasks e.g. setup your wireless network connection.

You can run the script with the parameter nonint.

sudo ./setup.sh nonint

This disables the GUI questions and uses the default values instead.

This project isn't affiliated with Mozilla or the Raspberry Pi Foundation. I just wanted to setup a simple (and more or less secure) webkiosk on a raspberry pi.
