60 Linux Commands You MUST Know (in 10 Minutes)
If you’re new to Linux, using the terminal can be a bit overwhelming. New Linux distributions like Linux Mint have great graphical interfaces, but the heart of Linux is the kernel, and that means you’ll have to use the command line.
Even if you’re a Windows user, you’ve probably had to open a command prompt window to perform a task at some point. With the latest version of Windows, Windows 10, you can even install the Ubuntu Bash shell on Windows and run Linux commands right from Windows!
In this article I'm going to cover some very basic Linux commands that are common to almost all Linux distributions. Since the bash shell is the most popular shell and I use it, I'll use that syntax for all the commands. I'll also list some of the most useful arguments for each command, but there are many more that you can find in the man pages.
