So you want to learn Linux? You want to fulfill your childhood dream and look like a hacker? Or you just want to manage some servers or escape Windows or Mac for an alternative system that is [free and open source](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html.en)? Then this book is for you!
This book focuses on the terminal side of Linux. This means that no [GUI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_user_interface) (graphical user interface) is discussed in this book. This makes the content of the book more useful for server usage and adminstration since servers normally have no GUI. Nevertheless, if you want to use Linux as a desktop, then beeing able to deal with the terminal is not only useful, but could even be required at some point.

You might ask, why not just use a GUI for everything? Hopefully, this book will let you understand why. A [CLI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_interface) (command line interface) is not well suited for everything. But for many tasks, a CLI might be much more powerful. It allows automation and enables you to use it as a component to build something bigger.
