Learn ten useful Linux commands

30 minutes · £0 · Easy

Stop treating the terminal like a mysterious black box. Learn ten commands you'll actually use.

Do it

  1. Open a terminal on a Linux machine, VM or WSL.
  2. Learn what pwd, ls, cd, mkdir, cp, mv, rm, cat, grep and less do.
  3. Create a temporary folder and use each command for a real task.
  4. Finish by combining commands rather than just memorising their names.

What next?

Finish it properly. Then go back and find something else to do.
