Linux is a free and open-source operating system based on Unix, typically used for servers, desktops, and embedded systems. This guided project will teach you how to explore, edit, and run files through the Linux terminal.

The Linux terminal is a command-line interface used to interact with the operating system and perform various tasks. You can use the command line interface to navigate directories, explore their contents, and install and update packages. You can also create and edit files and run shell commands within the command line interface.

In this guided project, you’ll explore the Linux terminal to interact with the operating system and perform various tasks.

You will learn to navigate directories on a Linux filesystem and install and update packages. You will create and edit files using nano, a popular text editor for the terminal in Linux, and run shell commands and applications from the terminal.

These basic skills will provide a foundation for performing more advanced tasks and managing Linux systems effectively.
