Hello Harke,
Seth here. Um, are you trying to run a specific piece of software only or
are you trying to run multiple pieces of software?
Seth
P.S. I know you have to make a file accessible at /etc/systemd/system/<your
.service file here> w/ the proper instructions in that .service file. Now,
to make it run should be easy, i.e. if this is just one piece of software.
[Unit]
Description=More of what will happen!
[Service]
ExecStart= /your/path/to/the/.py/file.py
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Try this!
