Once you have downloaded your image file, the next step is to flash it onto a microSD card. To do this,
download the [Raspberry Pi Imager](https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/) software. After selecting your hardware type, pick "Operating System" and then "Use custom" to select the `.img.xz` file you downloaded.
After you select your storage, and hit "Next", you'll encounter the "OS customization" option. Choose "Edit settings" to enter your login credentials, SSH key, and Wi-Fi information. If this works properly, you'll be able to access your Raspberry Pi over the network without needing to plug in a keyboard, mouse, or monitor. (We like to plug it into Ethernet for the first boot, because we find that the Raspberry Pi's Wi-Fi can be a bit finicky, even if properly configured.)

It would've been great if we had a pictorial walkthrough of how to flash the image onto the microSD card, but I don't think that's super necessary.
