As the Linux Training Academy founder and an instructor of several courses, I've had the good fortune of helping thousands of people hone their Linux skills. Interacting with so many people just getting started with the Linux operating system has given me invaluable insight into the particular struggles and challenges people face at this stage.
One of the biggest challenges for people interested in learning the ins and outs of Linux is simply a lack of time. When working with a limited and extremely valuable resource, you want to make the most of it.
The next biggest challenge for Linux newcomers is knowing where to start. There is so much information available that deciding what to focus your attention on first is a big enough hurdle to keep many people from even starting. What's worse is starting to learn only to discover too many concepts, commands, and nuances that aren't explained. This experience is frustrating and leaves you with more questions than answers.
Not only have I condensed the most important material into five sections, each designed to be consumed in a day, but I've also structured the content logically and systematically. This way, you'll make the most of your time by learning the foundational aspects of Linux first and then building upon that foundation each day.
In Linux in 3 Days, you will learn the most important concepts and commands and be guided through several practical and real-world examples. As new concepts, commands, or jargon are encountered, they are explained in plain language, making it easy to understand.
