Raspberry Pi Zero USB/Ethernet Gadget Tutorial
A single microUSB to USB adapter or cable is all you need to get local networking, power, and internet access to your Raspberry Pi Zero. In a few easy steps you can set up the Pi as a USB/ethernet device and your computer will recognize it just like plug and play printers, scanners, and other devices. Internet access is shared to the Pi from your computer. SSHing and remote desktop access works too. Follow along in the video and I'll show you how to set it up!

How to Setup Raspberry Pi Zero W for Headless
How to Setup Raspberry Pi Zero W for Headless
The following instructions will work anytime, you don't necessarily have to follow them for the first boot - this is just a very convenient way to get your Raspberry Pi onto a network without using any plug-in peripherals like a keyboard, mouse or monitor.
What is "headless," anyway?
A computer setup without a monitor is said to be running headless. You might want to do this if you're installing your Pi into some project, or want to keep power-usage and cost minimal. This kind of setup is what the Pi Zero W was built for. The idea is that you can still access your Pi's terminal interface over your network using a protocol called SSH.
