Start Shell Scripting in No Time

If you're new to shell scripting, it's one of the simplest ways to automate tasks in Unix-based systems. All you need is a text editor and a terminal.

Step 1: Creating Your First Script

Create a simple script by opening your favorite text editor and writing the following code:

#!/bin/sh
echo "Hello, World!"
    

Save the file as hello.sh and give it executable permissions:

chmod +x hello.sh
    

Step 2: Run the Script

To run the script, simply type the following in your terminal:

./hello.sh
    

What If You're Not on Linux?
