7 terminal commands all web developers should know.

Thread below 👇

🔹GIT

Git is by far the most popular version control system right now. 

There are plenty of third-party apps and tools available but most people prefer to access git natively though the terminal.

🔹SSH

With the ssh command users can quickly connect to a remote host and log into its Unix shell. 

To establish a connection you simply need to specify the correct ip address or url. 

// ssh username@remote_host

🔹ALIAS

To make UNIX commands easier to remember, you can create short aliases with the alias bash built-in command:

# Create an alias for starting a local web server 👇

// alias server="python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9000"

🔹LN

Links in Unix are similar to shortcuts in Windows, allowing you to get quick access to certain files. Links are created via the ln command and can be two types: hard or symbolic.

🔹TREE -tree

tree is a tiny command line utility that shows you a visual representation of the files in a directory.

This way you can quickly glance over and find the files you are looking for.

🔹TAR

Tar is the default Unix tool for working with file archives.

It allows you to quickly bundle multiple files into one package, making it easier to store and move them later on.

// tar -cf archive.tar file1 file2 file3

🔹DISK USAGE -du

The du command generates reports on the space usage of files and directories. 
A common use case for du is when one of your drives is running out of space and you don't know why.

Using this command you can quickly see how much storage each folder is taking.

There are more, but these 7 are super useful.
