Description

I have been running on Linux based operating systems for years now, and even though the Bash shell was pretty scary at first it is such a powerful tool. Once you can get around with your terminal emulator, the next step is learning how to write simple shell scripts. I hope I can help you get up to speed with that!

Bash has been the default terminal on Linux based systems for decades now. Although other shells like Zsh and Fish are getting more popular now, the best first step in learning shell scripting is still Bash.

During this course I will teach you:

  • Learn shell programming with bash
  • Learn how to create shell scripts for Linux and Mac
  • Automate repetitive tasks with shell scripts
  • Getting familiar with lots of shell commands.
