A maker built a fully functional Linux computer inside an Altoids tin, combining the classic tiny enclosure with a cyberdeck form factor. The build uses a Raspberry Pi Zero, a UPS PHAT, an SPI display, and a custom homemade keyboard. It features a full-size USB port and broken-out GPIO headers. Challenges included modifying the Altoids tin hinges for proper closure and requiring an older version of Raspberry Pi OS for the SPI screen driver.
