To install PiCameraApp

Some steps may be unnecessary, I documented them as I did them

Get img for SD card from Raspbian Jessie with PIXEL from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

1. Enable Camera, SSH & VNC

> sudo raspi-config
In interfacing options -> Enable Camera
For ease of access
-> enable SSH
-> enable VNC

2. Get your ip address
> ifconfig

From PC VNC (www.realvnc.com) in or ssh (Winscp & Putty) to make it easier to copy paste etc
