Master the Linux Command-Line & Bash Scripting
This course is a comprehensive immersion into the command-line of Linux and other UNIX-like systems. We'll learn the most popular shell tools and introduce concepts of Operating System theory that became popular with the UNIX OS.
We'll also discuss other important development tools that we can use with Linux, and learn how to write shell scripts that can be used to to automate system tasks.

The tools you'll need
You'll need either a Virtual Machine to install Linux or a physical machine that can be partitioned to run a Linux distribution natively.
We'll use a lightweight Linux distribution called Lubuntu and the Oracle VirtualBox Virtual Machine. All tools are cross-platform, so you can follow along on either Windows or macOS.
Is this course for you?
This course has no prerequisites and it's designed to be as beginner-friendly as possible. We'll start by understanding the history and the evolution of UNIX-like systems, and proceed to cover the most popular tools of the Linux command-line.
We will also try to be as portable as possible. All the commands we'll learn should work with any Linux distribution and any other UNIX-like system (OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and macOS).
This course was designed with programmers in mind. Therefore, we will not be covering advanced Linux tools for networking, infrastructure, or system administration.
