I need to know the reasons why learning Linux Shell Scripting (BASH) benefits me as a PHP developer
- by Ahmad Farouk
I have been developing web sites/applications using the LAMP stack for almost 5 years.
Currently I am interested to dig more into Linux OS, specifically BASH but from a web developer perspective, not from sys admin perspective.
I am not intending to administrate Linux Servers. Only, I want to know, does learning shell scripting benefit me as a PHP developer? Does it make me a better, more skilled developer, or just its something irrelevant?
Reasons, and examples are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
