Why I Chose to Learn Linux Before Cloud and DevOps 🐧
As I started my journey into the world of Cloud and DevOps, one thing became clear: Linux is the foundation.
- Most cloud servers run on Linux.
- DevOps tools (Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, etc.) are built to work best in Linux environments.
- Understanding file systems, permissions, networking, and shell scripting is crucial.
- Even troubleshooting and deployment pipelines rely heavily on Linux commands and structure.

That’s why I made the decision to first build a strong base in Linux — so that I could better understand and use DevOps and Cloud technologies with confidence.

💡 If you're starting out too, consider mastering the basics before jumping to advanced tools. It’s worth it!
