what you need:

male usb connector

4 wires

some soldering skills

here is the diagram you need to follow to solder the male usb to the raspberry pi zero

Step 1: Config the Sdcard Image

I’m using the latest Raspberry Pi Image called Pixel which you can download here

and load the the image to the sd card. When you are done, located the file config.txt from the Boot drive of the sdcard and insert this at the end

[code]dtoverlay=dwc2[/code]

then save the file, and locate the file called cmdline.txt and insert this text right after rootwait

[code]modules-load=dwc2,g_ether[/code]

when done, save the file and you can now insert the sdcard into the raspberry pi zero

to access your raspberry pi from your computer, use ssh client and point it to

raspberrypi.local

now you should be all done!
