What will you learn?
So many developers go years before understanding the basics of shells, terminals, and Linux (or more generally Unix-like systems). Here you'll learn to navigate files and directories, install dependencies, configure your PATH, and use powerful CLI tools like grep, find, and pipes. Never fear the command line again, make it fear you.

I fully recommend this course, even if you already feel pretty comfortable with Linux. I’ve used different distros before, but this course still taught me a lot.

Very nice course with educational yet entertaining exercises! I learned a lot about concepts I thought I already knew well. I do wish, though, that it expanded a little more on group management.

Not a fan of the Terminal, way too clunky and time-consuming. Cannot easily copy/paste and it was really bad on my eyes - on a 4k monitor it was barely readable :(.
