Do itfor real
The modules explain. The labs make you type. Every one has exact commands, the exact prompts to paste, and a check at the end so you know whether it actually worked. Start at 00 even if you think you can skip it.
What you need
- A laptop you can install software on — Windows, macOS or Linux
- About 25 minutes per lab, and a willingness to break things
