Description
Have you ever considered trying Linux but didn’t know how to get started? This training is for you.
Linux is a great operating system for developers, especially Drupal developers. Why?
- Linux runs fast on both new, and not so new, hardware.
- Docker, which most developers use, runs natively on Linux, therefor also runs fast.

- Learn how to install Linux
- Get hands on experience with the developer focused Linux distribution, Pop!_OS
