Saw the announcement yesterday for Hassbian 1.2.1 and got super excited? Saw the [announcement](/blog/2017/04/30/hassbian-1.21-its-about-time/) yesterday for HASSbian 1.21 and got super excited?
Today we'll flash the latest Hassbian to a Raspbery Pi Zero W. Today we'll flash the latest HASSbian to a [Raspbery Pi Zero W](https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/pi-zero/).
**With an added bonus** that besides for a usb cable for power, there's no need for any cables! **With an added bonus** that besides for an USB cable for power, there's no need for any cables!

Next stick your SD card into the Raspberry Pi Zero W, and plug it in.

Wait about 15 - 20 minutes and Viola! you have your home assistant on your pi in 30 minutes. Wait about 15-20 minutes and voilà you have your Home Assistant on your Raspberry Pi Zero W in 30 minutes.
