What is Bash Script?
It is a command sequence that automates multi-step operations that need to be done on the computer by collecting them in a single file.
Overview
Bash script allows you to combine the commands you type one by one on the computer's command line and store them in a single file. When you run this file, all commands in it are executed sequentially and without errors. It is one of the biggest helpers of software developers, especially to speed up repetitive tasks.
How it works
You open a text file and write the commands you want to run one under the other. Once you save the file and make it executable, you start the entire process with a single click or command.
Where it is used
It is frequently used in server management, backup operations or software installation processes.
Frequently asked questions
Why should I use script instead of writing it by hand?
It reduces the margin of error and allows you to perform the same operation at the same speed every time.
