switching to 64bit / miniforge

[kleinee]

Apologies that this repository did not see much updates for quite a while. Development of all things Jupyter continues at such a pace that supporting all Pi versions / OS versions is next to impossible.

I have personally switched to Pi 4 4GB / Pi 400 as the minimum hardware requirements and am using either 64bit Pi OS or Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Rather than scripting the whole installation, I am now using miniforge3.

The combination Pi4 / 400, 64bit OS, miniforge3 works like a charm!

All there is to it is literally:

• install miniforge3
• install jupyter lab into the base environment
• add python packages as required
• install Julia / IJulia
• install TeX
• install nodejs
