This is how I schedule tasks on Raspberry Pi and you should too

The Raspberry Pi is more than just a tiny computer; you can use it to automate your daily life by scheduling essential tasks, such as backing up your files, monitoring your network, and even controlling smart devices at home. When I first started using the Raspberry Pi, I manually executed most scripts and programs. It worked for a while, but it was easy to forget something important. Once I discovered task scheduling, everything became much more efficient and reliable. Now, I rely on scheduled scripts to handle routine operations without constant supervision. Below, I’ll share several methods for scheduling tasks on a Raspberry Pi. I have tried them, and even though I mainly use cron jobs, you can you can review each one and choose the one that best suits your workflow and experience level.
