Bash for Beginners

Overview

These Microsoft Developer YouTube series is designed to help get you up to speed on Bash.

These three series on Channel 9 and YouTube are designed to help get you up to speed on Bash. Bash is considered a universal language when it comes to cloud computing and programming.
