## Step 3 Autostart your Pi Stream
Optional: A good idea is running your Pi Camera stream at Pi boot up. This removes the need to re-run the script every time you want to create the stream.
You can do this by going adding the boot up code the .bashrc file.
Via GUI - show hidden .bashrc and add the code or access via terminal:
```
sudo nano /home/pi/.bashrc
```
Go the end of the and add the following (from above):
```
sudo python3 /home/pi/pi-camera-stream-flask/main.py
```
This would cause the following terminal command to auto-start upon Raspberry Pi boot up.
