This book aims to teach Linux Command Line tools and Shell Scripting for beginner to intermediate level users. The focus is towards managing your files and performing text processing tasks. Topics like system administration and networking won't be discussed. Visit https://youtu.be/vedRFbWwx_c for a short video about the book.
The book also includes exercises to test your understanding, which are presented together as a single file in this repo — exercises.md.
For solutions to the exercises, see exercise-solutions.md.
See Version_changes.md to keep track of changes made to the book.

Ive only gotten through first pages but appears a good Unix/bash primer. I’ll probably recommend for new hires out of bootcamp because they’re usually weak here
Nice book! I just started trying to get into linux today and you have some tips I haven’t found elsewhere and the text is an enjoyable read so far.
