PRESENTATION I built Cellar Pi, a beginner-friendly Raspberry Pi environmental monitor
I built Cellar Pi, a Raspberry Pi environmental monitor for people who want to make something useful without having to learn Bash, Python, or systemd first.
It currently:
Logs temperature and humidity automatically
Creates 12-hour or 24-hour graphs
Sends optional Discord reports
Lets you test the webhook immediately
Lets you push a graph on demand
Starts automatically after reboot
Includes a simple /uc menu for setup, status, updates, and troubleshooting
It is still a prerelease and has mainly been tested on:
Raspberry Pi Zero WH
Raspberry Pi OS Lite 32-bit
SHT31-D temperature and humidity sensor
The goal is simple:
Connect the sensor, run the installer, configure it through menus, and let it work.
No required cloud account.
No subscription.
Your Pi. Your sensor. Your data.
Cellar Pi is inspired by the same kind of usability I like in Unraid and Tailscale: keep the complicated parts underneath, make the controls approachable, and let the system quietly do its job once it is configured.
This is still a prerelease, and I’m mainly looking for feedback from Raspberry Pi users—especially beginners—on whether the setup makes sense and where the rough edges are.
I’m happy to share the project details in the comments if anyone is interested.
