In this recipe, we are going to explore the possibilities of the Banana Pi to run dynamic web applications. We will install the Nginx web server, the MySQL database server, and the PHP scripting language. In order to get this complete, we are going to set up the widely used blog software, WordPress, on top of our upcoming web stack.
The following ingredients are required to cook the web stack:
A running Banana Pi with a Debian-based Linux system
A configured network on the Banana Pi
We need to split this recipe into four parts.
