The Terminal, Linux & Bash
Learn to drive a computer with text. Starting from your very first command, you will navigate the filesystem, create and manage files, search with grep and find, chain tools together with pipes, understand permissions and processes, customize your environment, and write real bash scripts that automate boring work. Every lesson is hands-on runnable bash.
