Here’s a few how to style sites that I’ve found useful for everything from small things to big projects:
These are general things that might seem too basic but there are some gems in there. Everyone, even really experienced users, can have gaps in their knowledge of basics:
https://github.com/you-dont-need/You-Dont-Need-GUI https://github.com/you-dont-need/You-Dont-Need-GUI
Julie Evans doesn’t right just about Linux but when she writes a how-to she really puts the time in to do it well:
https://jvns.ca/ https://jvns.ca/
DigitalOcean has the best set of how-to docs I know of for a web hosting company:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials
I have less experience with them but Linode seems to do a good job on how to docs too:
https://www.linode.com/resources/ https://www.linode.com/resources/
And there’s man pages and the like, too, but man pages can be a bit cumbersome for learning more than some options and basic use of a command.
Any other sites that people think are best for Linux in general, specialized areas like shells and scripting, distro specific sites, etc.? I’d save those sites and return to them first then do a web search if not enough there.
- greenie_beans 5y agoDitto on Julia Evans and Digital Ocean. Also, do the reddit.com/r/linuxupskillchallenge. You'll learn a new piece each day. (Rest in peace snori74)
- airstrike 5y agoOne of my all time favorites was the OG Django Book http://web.archive.org/web/20080304015113/http://www.djangobook.com/en/1.0/ http://web.archive.org/web/20080304015113/http://www.djangob... I believe the idea to let readers annotate any paragraph with questions / additional comments has not been replicated to date, but it was immensely helpful. Sadly the Wayback version doesn't let you load those comments, but you get the idea

- marmot777 5y agoYou’re saying that the Arch Wiki has some good how to’s that are applicable to all distros? I respect Arch. It’s hard core!
