It was very good course and the content was compressed to get the best. In this module instructor covers all linux distribution and commands used in different distribution to perform same functions.

This was the type of course I was searching for, it has allowed me to increase my capability tremendously by learning a lot of new stuff and bash things, the right way to do them. Its impressive.

Lots of great history about the evolution of Linux. The practical knowledge shared assumes the student has a lot more fundamental knowledge than I had expected. Choosing to have a guide on installing Linux at the end of the course (instead of the beginning) is questionable but telling of the expected prerequisites. With the ease of access to Raspberry Pi there should be a totally optional lab, in week 1, explaining how to set up Ubuntu on a Pi4 and then all the examples (as many as possible) should have been done on that. Optionally, a guide on VM setups and then sticking to that for some other examples would have been helpful too. Many of the commands mentioned in the labs would not work for me in either the WSL Linux instance or my RPi4 system.

Good course with a lot of knowledge. A variety of subjects is explained.

It would be even better if it gave more details and hands-on exercices about the basics (input output, pipes, basic bash commands), instead of giving complete information about dozens of apps that one will seldom use.

Also the structure is sometimes a bit chaotic: sudo appears at the very beginning but we only learn how it acctually works at the end of the course.

The course is good but I felt pretty much tough since a lot of new commands have been implemented. Also, the teaching methods were not that great. The instructor was simply reading the slides.

But again, nice work for bringing the Linux course.

not in depth, topics are barely touched on the surface without going into much details. the reading materials are not well articulated as well, often require googling to get a better grasp at the content.

The knowledge provided in this course is basic but written and explain in a very complicated manner. Did not like it.

I think it's good for someone who need to enter Linux but should make options for different distribution thanks
