O ovoj e-knjizi
Master the tools. Build the workflow. Own the shell.
Effective Shell is the hands-on guide for developers who want to master the command line—not just to get around, but to build a fast, flexible, and portable development environment.
This isn’t a tour of shell commands. It’s a blueprint for creating workflows that scale across machines, teams, and projects. You’ll go from keystroke-level efficiency to composing powerful pipelines, writing reliable scripts, and automating common development tasks. Then you’ll take it further: managing your configuration with Git, customizing your shell setup, and working seamlessly across remote sessions using tools like Vim and tmux.
By the end, your shell won’t just be a tool; it’ll be an extension of your thinking.
You’ll learn how to:
Rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all toolkit, Effective Shell teaches you the tools, practices, and strategies to build a shell environment that fits the way you work—efficient, portable, and entirely yours.
Whether you’re leveling up from the basics or refining your craft, this book will help you think clearly, automate confidently, and work more effectively in the shell.
