Learn command line tricks, programs, and hacks you can use day to day as a Linux user, programmer, and system administrator. When you interact with the digital world, you can’t go far without interacting with Linux systems. This book shows you how to leverage its power to serve your needs. Many users know "top" is installed on almost all Linux machines, but did you know with a few keystrokes you can customize it specifically for your needs? Stuck using `cd` and `ls` commands for navigating file systems? This book looks at how you can use Ranger to quickly navigate through multiple levels of folders, and quickly run bash commands without ever leaving the terminal. We also suggest programs that can be used for common tasks such as finding which programs are using the most processing, data download/upload, and file space.You’ll know how to quickly connect to remote machines and run your commonly needed jobs in a keystroke or even on auto-pilot. With Basic Linux Terminal Tips and Tricks you'll be equipped with a wide range of tools that can be used for daily work and maintenance on all sorts of Linux systems including servers, desktops, and even embedded devices. What You Will LearnWork with common tools on your local network.Techniques for efficient use of command line.Easily manipulate text files for processing.Monitor the state of a system with a handful of popular programs.Combine programs to create useful processes.Who This Book Is For Anyone who is interested in Linux and Unix based operating systems as a hobby or for work.

Develop your JavaScript programming skills by learning strategies and techniques commonly used in modern full-stack application developmentKey FeaturesWrite and deploy full-stack applications efficiently with JavaScriptDelve into JavaScript’s multiple programming paradigmsGet up to speed with core concepts such as modularity and functional programming to write efficient codeBook DescriptionIn depth knowledge of JavaScript makes it easier to learn a variety of other frameworks, including React, Angular, and related tools and libraries. This book is designed to help you cover the core JavaScript concepts you need to build modern applications.You'll start by learning how to represent an HTML document in the Document Object Model (DOM). Then, you'll combine your knowledge of the DOM and Node.js to create a web scraper for practical situations. As you read through further lessons, you'll create a Node.js-based RESTful API using the Express library for Node.js. You'll also understand how modular designs can be used for better reusability and collaboration with multiple developers on a single project. Later lessons will guide you through building unit tests, which ensure that the core functionality of your program is not affected over time. The book will also demonstrate how constructors, async/await, and events can load your applications quickly and efficiently. Finally, you'll gain useful insights into functional programming concepts such as immutability, pure functions, and higher-order functions.By the end of this book, you'll have the skills you need to tackle any real-world JavaScript development problem using a modern JavaScript approach, both for the client and server sides.What you will learnApply the core concepts of functional programmingBuild a Node.js project that uses the Express.js library to host an APICreate unit tests for a Node.js project to validate itUse the Cheerio library with Node.js to create a basic web scraperDevelop a React interface to build processing flowsUse callbacks as a basic way to bring control backWho this book is forIf you want to advance from being a frontend developer to a full-stack developer and learn how Node.js can be used for hosting full-stack applications, this is an ideal book for you. After reading this book, you'll be able to write better JavaScript code and learn about the latest trends in the language. To easily grasp the concepts explained here, you should know the basic syntax of JavaScript and should've worked with popular frontend libraries such as jQuery.
