Shell accepts human-readable commands from users and converts them into something which the kernel can understand. It is a command language interpreter that executes commands read from input devices such as keyboards or from files.

We explored command line and graphical shells, like BASH, and understood that the terminal is where we type in our commands. The article introduced shell scripting, a way to automate tasks using simple scripts, and discussed the advantages and disadvantages of using them. A practical example demonstrated creating a script for quick directory navigation. Finally, we saw how to make the script work and become accessible in every terminal session.
