We will install the RealVNC server on the Raspberry Pi, which is available in the repositories Follow the steps below to install it:
Update your repository :
sudo apt-get update
Install RealVNC server :
sudo apt-get install realvnc-vnc-server
Enable VNC Server : Start raspbian configuration
sudo raspi-config
Choose 3-Interfacing options
Select VNC
Answer Yes
Select Finish to quit (or ESC).
Now that we finished installing VNC, let’s see how to connect
From Windows it is the same thing, you can download and install RealVNC from their website.
Then launch the software via the start menu, type the IP of the Raspberry Pi and here you are connected to the remote desktop
The requested logins are the usual users of the system (for example pi/raspberry if you have not changed the password)
RealVNC is also available for Mac OS so just get and install it and then follow the same steps as below 🙂
based on https://blog.technitium.com/2019/01/quick-and-easy-guide-to-install-net.html .NET Core is a cross-platform runtime available for x64 and ARM processors that can be used to run ASP.NET Core web applications and standalone .NET Core console applications on Windows, Linux and macOS.
Installing .NET Core is straight forward for most Desktop platforms with clear instructions available on the download website. However, many would find it trickier to install it on something like Raspberry Pi which uses ARM based processor. So, here is a quick and easy guide to install .NET Core 2.2 on Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with the latest Raspbian that is based on Debian 9 (Stretch).
Connect to your Raspberry Pi using SSH or VNC and get started!
First you need to install a few dependencies required by the .NET Core runtime:
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get -y install curl libunwind8 gettext apt-transport-https
Go to the .NET Core download page and download the Linux ARM32 runtime. Or you could just copy the download URL from there to use with wget like I did and follow these steps:
wget https://download.visualstudio.microsoft.com/download/pr/1c5366e8-9b74-4017-96ae-47fc08832c22/504aed87590bd99c49d053bc6f980b6b/aspnetcore-runtime-5.0.0-linux-arm.tar.gz
sudo mkdir -p /opt/dotnet
sudo tar -zxf aspnetcore-runtime-5.0.0-linux-arm.tar.gz -C /opt/dotnet
sudo ln -s /opt/dotnet/dotnet /usr/bin
Now just enter dotnet on the command line to confirm.
Its Done! Now you are ready to run ASP.NET Core or .NET Core console apps on your Raspberry Pi!
sudo apt-get install mono-complete
Then you need to install the bindings between Mono and GTK:
sudo apt-get install gtk-sharp2
The Xamarin.Forms GTK backend makes use of webkit-sharp:
sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-dev
Copy the output of a Xamarin.Forms GTK# Backend application and run:
mono Xamarin.Forms.App.GTK.exe
sudo apt-get install mono-complete
sudo apt-get install gtk-sharp2
sudo apt-get install libwebkitgtk-dev
sudo apt-get remove libwebkitgtk-dev
sudo apt-get remove gtk-sharp2
sudo apt-get remove mono-complete
sudo nano /etc/mono/config
add following lines to mono config for the necessary file mappings:
<dllmap dll="libglib-2.0-0.dll" target="libglib-2.0.so.0" os="linux" />
<dllmap dll="libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll" target="libgtk-3.so.0" os="linux"/>
<dllmap dll="libgobject-2.0-0.dll" target="libgobject-2.0.so.0" os="linux"/>

<dllmap dll="pangosharpglue-2" target="/usr/lib/cli/pango-sharp-2.0/libpangosharpglue-2.so" os="!windows"/>
<dllmap dll="gdksharpglue-2" target="/usr/lib/cli/gdk-sharp-2.0/libgdksharpglue-2.so" os="!windows"/>
<dllmap dll="libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll" target="libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so" os="!windows"/>
See if lib exists
find /usr -name *gdksharpglue*
