Setting up Octoprint

When I was running my old 3D printer, I found using OctoPrint to be helpful. I think it would be good to set up a new instance of OctoPrint.

Steps

• From the OctoPrint web site, I download OctoPi 0.17.0. 
• Using Etcher, burned the image to a 16GB SD card. 
• Updated the file octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt with my network credentials. 
• ssh to the pi
• ran raspi-config
• changed the user password
• change timezone
• rebooted the pi
• Using a browser, I navigated to the IP of the OctoPi and followed the prompts to set up the first user

At this point, I paused to explore the interface. While I was exploring, OctoPrint went ahead with checking for updates. Updates were discovered and I went ahead with installing them.
