Raspberry Pi OS • A project requires "pibooth" which says it needs "Raspberry Pi OS Buster with desktop". Will the latest OS work?

Hello,

I am interested in making a "photo booth in a box" similar to the one seen in this YouTube video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=PXmx4DnMybM

The project uses "pibooth" which says it needs "Raspberry Pi OS Buster with desktop"

[ https://documentation.pibooth.org/en/st ... stall.html ]

(the project also uses the Adafruit neopixel SPI library - https://docs.circuitpython.org/projects ... en/latest/ ,
and the creator’s neopixel plugin for PiBooth - https://github.com/peteoheat/pibooth-neopixel_spi )

I just bought a Raspberry Pi 4B and a microSD card with the latest OS.

I am wondering if I need to wipe my microSD card and install the old Raspberry Pi OS Buster with desktop from 2019, or if the current OS ("Bookworm"?) contains all of the old abilities that the Buster release had (and could therefore be used with pibooth without problems).

Any ideas?
