Updating/Installing without LAN connection

Sun Nov 20, 2016 8:34 pm

I am in the design stage of a project which will be using a PI zero to control stepper motors and a few other sensors.
With my wifi dongle still in the mail, and the end product being without any sort of network connection, what would be my best way going forward to update/install software and data?

I understand that while in construction, I could use a wifi dongle and a USB hub, but once assembled, this will not be an option and data will need to be periodically updated on the unit.

Pop the micro-SD card out and put it in a RPi Model B+ or 2B or 3B.
