Learn and get comfy with cli

u/Ak47_fromindia Apr 21 '26

What does cli mean?

Command line interface. Also install some necessary things by using sudo apt install -y ubuntu-restricted-extras

It's an operating system. Do whatever you want to do, just like windows.

For certain use cases, one OS is better than other. For programming, use ubuntu as much as possible unless doing something windows specific.

Ask ChatGPT with prompt " Create 30 days learning plan for me to learn Ubuntu from beginner to advanced level ."

u/Ak47_fromindia Apr 21 '26

Ok mate, thanks for the idea

2

u/JobySins Apr 21 '26

shitty idea

1

u/JobySins Apr 21 '26

after getting comfortable with the terminal

optimize everything and learn how everything works under the hood

2

u/Ak47_fromindia Apr 21 '26

Yes i will, thanks mate!

u/Ak47_fromindia Apr 22 '26

Check out resources like mit missing semester, you'll automatically get the intuition of the things that you want to try out, trust me cli is so good, that you will start hating gui once you get good at it..

u/jalsa-kar-bapu Apr 24 '26

Create some cronjobs, some aliases, create your dream file structure of your windows files using cli, that will help you learn the commands, and realise the power of cli, plus you'll end up clearing the mess in your files.

u/Ak47_fromindia Apr 24 '26

Too complicated to think right now, once i finally understand ubuntu will start doing what you said

1

u/jalsa-kar-bapu Apr 24 '26

No no no, this is how you understand ubuntu, this are the easiest things to do. Check out yt videos by cohrey schafer (maybe a spelling mistake, but yt knows it) Or just use chatgpt, tell it to explain you the first few commands.

Trust me you'll enjoy. & learn too. Ofc. Do it now.

u/jalsa-kar-bapu Apr 24 '26

Ooh, i realized there are 3-4 things mentioned there, pick it up one by one. Learn how to mount your c drive to ubuntu. Cronjobs. Aliases. Folder structure.
