Raspberry Pi Homebridge SSH Issue

[Zerxal]

I have my raspberry pi setup with Homebridge, allowing my Nest thermostats to be connected to Homekit. Everything works fine, except for that for when I close my SSH terminal, Homebridge cancels I can no longer use my Nest thermostats with Homekit. 

 

Is there any way I can close my SSH terminal and still have Homebridge running?

You'll need to look into screen where it creates another session that you can do stuff in, launch programs, etc. and exit the screen session without killing it and then logout and things will keep going.

How would I go about doing that?
