Learn Enough Developer Tools to Be Dangerous: Command Line, Text Editor, and Git Version Control Essentials
內容描述
All You Need to Know, and Nothing You Don't, About Core Tools for Software Development
Three of the core tools needed for modern software development are the Unix command line, a text editor, and version control with Git. But you don't need to learn everything about them, just how to use them efficiently to solve real problems. In Learn Enough Developer Tools to Be Dangerous, renowned instructor Michael Hartl teaches the specific concepts, skills, and approaches you need so you can learn to write apps, get hired, collaborate, and maybe even launch your own company.
Even if you've never used (or even heard of) these tools before, Hartl helps you quickly build technical sophistication and master the lore you need to succeed. Focused exercises help you internalize what matters, without wasting time on details pros don't care about. Soon, it'll be like you were born knowing this stuff--and you'll be suddenly, seriously dangerous.
