In terms of getting started with the command line and getting an understanding of what you are doing (rather than a handful of “memories these commands” as some beginner tutorials sadly end up being) I’ve found “Learn enough command line to be dangerous” to be absolutely amazing.
It’s free, even though the webpage makes it look you might need to buy a subscription (edit: you need to pay beyond chapter 2). It takes half a day to a whole workday to work through, but for me it was a great investment of time.

- drowntoge 6y agoThe tutorial looks neat. It asks me to start a $5 subscription to get past Chapter 2 though.
- rovr138 6y agoAt the bottom it says continue reading and it took me to chapter 2 and from there to 3, https://www.learnenough.com/command-line-tutorial/manipulating_files https://www.learnenough.com/command-line-tutorial/manipulati...
- trymas 6y agoChapter 3 is locked - at least for me. Though 3$ is probably a small price to pay for standalone version.
- wodenokoto 6y agoMy bad. It used to be free and I just clicked through to the second chapter and that convinced me it was still the case.
- nateweiss 6y agoLooks like they also offer the book for $3 “la la carte” (without a subscription) which sounds reasonable.
