"This course gave me the push I needed to move from just typing basic commands to actually mastering Unix workflows. The examples are very practical.

This course goes beyond just listing commands—it actually shows how to combine them into meaningful workflows. I especially liked the reusable shell functions section. The pace was good.

Overall a very solid course. The use of xargs, grep, and awk in real-world tasks was extremely helpful. The only drawback is that some explanations assumed prior Unix knowledge, so absolute beginners might find it tough. But for intermediate learners, it’s spot on.

I’ve taken other Unix courses before, but this one focused a lot more on writing cleaner and reusable commands. The focus on debugging scripts was very relevant to my work. A small improvement would be to include more real troubleshooting scenarios.

Clear teaching and practical lessons. I had never really explored built-in help systems like man and info in detail, but this course made me realize how powerful they are. I’d recommend adding some quick practice challenges after each section.

Great course for building confidence on the command line. The introduction to Unix help tools was something I had overlooked before, and now I use them daily. The only improvement I’d suggest is adding a few cheat sheets for quick recall.

As someone who already knew the basics of Unix, I found this course very refreshing. It focused less on theory and more on doing. My only minor complaint is that I wanted more advanced case studies on data processing with awk.

I liked how the course emphasized efficiency and clarity in writing commands. The parts on debugging scripts and using help systems really stood out. A few of the advanced command chaining examples went helped me catch up.

I’ve always struggled with stream manipulation, but the way it was explained here finally made sense. The section on modular shell functions was especially useful. That said, some of the exercises could have used a bit more step-by-step explanation.
