What you'll learn in this Linux course
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.

There's a lot of things that were confusing in this course and I had to ask help from Discord to fix the whole thing because I completely broke my WSL system while trying to understand some lessons

Great course! I've dabbled a bit in Linux but still learned a ton of new information by going through this course!

easy to follow, i feel like i have a decent idea of whats going on in the cli, though i have no clue what to do with like zed or the cli outside of looking at folders etc. I figure that comes later

The info was pleasantly dense I was constantly learning instead of trudging through fluff.
