Yeah, once you get the basics of BASH down Linux becomes really easy.
Open up your Console/Shell/Terminal and type “help” it will give you the list of standard commands that let you navigate the shell.
cd = change directory
mkdir = make directory
nano = edit file
rm = remove file
rmdir = remove directory
sudo = run command as administrator/root privileges
And once you get that going you’ll eventually get the options for each command, for example rm -rf is remove a file forcefully (the -f option), if you apply that command to directories it will remove anything within those directories with recursion (the -r option).
You also don’t need to cd into a directory if you want to edit a file in it. For example nano /home/user/Desktop/SomeRandomFile.conf
Ill definitely look into this.
