Your computer is a workspace
Understand files, folders, a terminal and a running program.
15 minutes
Follow the files
A project folder contains source files, a README and configuration. A terminal is a text interface for working in a folder and running programs. The current working directory matters: a command acts in that location unless you give it another path.
Read before running
Before accepting a suggested command, identify the program, arguments and expected effect. Commands can read files, change them, install software or contact a service. If you cannot explain an action, ask the agent to explain it before you run it.
bash
pwd
ls
# Inspect the current folder before running project commands.
