I need to download an operating system for my raspberry pi that works with pitft and I found two different version on PI's website - full version and Lite-based. So, what is Lite-based OS as supposed to Full version... First instance, here is the link for the download page. It says Download Jessie and Download Lite-Jessie...

https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pitft-3-dot-5-touch-screen-for-raspberry-pi/easy-install

So, I need to know if they are the same and it will work with my 3.5 pitft display.

The images that adafruit are supplying are images where the TFT screen driver had been installed... (So basically, adafruit have run the DIY Installer script and they're distributing the installed version)

The lite version of Debian Jessie is a cut down version with less features, it is much more lightweight, but its features have been cut down

I suggest you use the DIY Installer...
