- How clipboard managers memorize the things you copy, so you don't have to.
- How to use the greatest/biggest/most intelligent :)) console editor since humankind appeared. Yes, it's Vim. And we'll dive deep into its usefulness.

oh-my-zshframework featuring over 200 plugins for developers and productivity seekers. - Extensive lessons on terminal commands: how to find and replace text, parts of text, tiny bits of text or even non-text.

- And much more. This book is for all the programmers that are new to the Linux environment.
But who are we?
Petru: the infamous coder with many years of Linux experience. He types like crazy, loves doughnuts and has Linux wired in his brain!

He spends his time coding frontends, backends, databases, Linux servers, and clouds.
Bogdan: the deserter! He went through more than 20 Linux and Unix distributions including Plan 9, HP-UX and all of the BSDs. But after his girlfriend left him because he spent way too much time in front of the computer he… switched to Mac.
Now he spends his time teaching over ten thousand students in his 8 online courses.
And we are here to help you double your terminal productivity!
