Building a Pet Cam using a Raspberry Pi, Cloudflare Tunnels and Teams
The author adopted a pet named Ziggy and noticed its mischievous behavior while searching for food on the kitchen counter. To monitor Ziggy's actions remotely, the author decided to set up a pet cam using a Raspberry Pi with a camera module. They used Motion, a program that sets up the camera as a web server, and connected it to the Internet via Cloudflare Tunnel for secure access. The author also implemented Google authentication through Cloudflare Teams to ensure only authorized users could view the pet cam feed.
