How To Run Any Raspberry Pi Script at Boot with systemd
If you want your Raspberry Pi to run scripts automatically at startup, this video shows exactly how to do it using systemd. I walk through how to create a systemd service for both Bash and Python scripts, enable them to start at boot, and monitor everything in real time with journalctl. This method is the cleanest and most reliable way to automate scripts on a Raspberry Pi, and it works much better than using cron or other workarounds.
