Introduction
This tutorial is written for users who are more familiar with the Raspberry Pi and Linux.
Step 1: Insert the SD card with Raspbian into the RPI

Connect the raspberry Pi to a monitor using the HDMI cable.
The following steps require a keyboard & mouse.
Follow the instructions on the monitor and update the board.

Open the terminal.
Enter:
sudo rm -rf LCD show git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git chmod -R 755 LCD show cd LCD show/sudo ./LCD35-show
The screen should now work.
Step 4: Install Virtual Keyboard
Open the terminal.

Once your LCD Display works your HDMI output will no longer work.
If you still want to work via a monitor, you can reactivate the HDMI output.
