Linux is an essential skill in the toolbelt of any IT professional. Whether you're a Software Developer, Network Engineer, Cloud Engineer, or Security Analyst, Linux is a skill you'll need to have down to perform your job.
Shell Samurai introduces Linux in a beginner-friendly format. It starts by introducing Linux and then invites users to dive head-first into the command-line.
Why You Should Learn Linux:
Learning how Linux works and how to use it effectively is an essential skill for anyone interested in an Information Technology career. Linux is the most widely used Server operating system. The entire world runs on Linux! From cell phones to super-computers, fridges, cars and satellites, Linux is running everywhere. By mastering Linux, you will gain a deeper understanding of how computers work in general and how to build career skills that will serve you. Learning Linux is an investment in your career and your future.
CLIs are shrouded with mystery and give even some seasoned IT professionals pause. It can seem so intimidating, just sitting there with its cursor blinking. All arrogant with its plain-text. Where do you even start? How can you cram your head with all these commands? “This is too hard, I give up! Why do I even need this stupid command-line?!” is a phrase we’re throwing away. Stick with it, the Command-Line is worth learning.
Firstly, using a command-line is much quicker than GUI configuration! Once you become a Shell Samurai, you can command a Linux system to do your bidding with ease and speed. The GUI just doesn’t offer the same level of control. Nearly every boring, repetitive task can be automated away with shell scripts that run from the command-line. Think of all the saved time you’ll spend on the beach.
Secondly, learning how to use the CLI will give you a deeper understanding of how the Linux OS works. By interacting at a lower level, you’ll be able to see how underlying processes and systems work. The GUI often hides features and switches to appear more user-friendly, but ultimately handicap our learning. Knowing how the operating system truly works will help you maintain and troubleshoot Linux systems more effectively.
By the end of Shell Samurai, you'll be prepared to navigate the Linux shell like a boss.
