# **🚀 My Second Week with CLI & Bash Scripting: A Shout-Out to a Great Learning Journey
# Last week, I stepped into the powerful world of the command-line interface (CLI) and Bash scripting — and wow, what a ride it’s been!**





*I started with basic CLI navigation: moving through directories, creating files, editing with vim, and exploring the magic of pipes (|) and redirection (>). From there, I dived into Bash scripting, learning how to write simple scripts, use variables, accept user input, and write control flow statements like if, else, while, and for.*





**Here’s a quick summary of what I learned:**




🔍 Navigating Linux using the terminal like a pro

🧠 Writing Bash scripts from scratch

🛠 Using chmod, chown, and grep effectively

🧪 Automating tasks with loops and conditionals

💡 Thinking like a developer — solving problems with code



The learning experience was top-notch. The environment was conducive, the curriculum was clear and practical, and I had the privilege of learning from some of the best mentors around — always ready to break down concepts and guide with patience.




I’m truly grateful for this opportunity and proud of how far I’ve come in just one week. 🙌




Big thanks to @blockfuse labs for making possible! On to more scripting, automation, and eventually building real-world tools!
