Creating web sites is more than just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Understanding the tools we use requires a skill set all its own. Underneath the UI surface of our desktop applications lives the power of the command line.

This book is for developers and designers alike. Seeing a blank Terminal window waiting for your input can feel overwhelming. Where do you begin? Why should a web developer even need to know about Bash or Unix? Do you have to become an expert in this stuff just to do your job? Chris Williams is here to help.

This book is perfect for those just starting out and for those who want to really understand what’s going on in their computers. You can learn more about this book, purchase your copy on Amazon or Leanpub, or use the Table of Contents to begin.
