The Shell
- Used to start/stop programs
- Line oriented
- Allows detailed control, overflows into programming
- Conceptually closer (than GUI) to what a program actually does
- Lighter than GUI
Notes:
If you don’t know, use Bash.
You can use other shells, at your own risk.
You don't need a GUI for programming
And certainly no IDE
No RSI
