Linux Beginner Boost

The Linux Beginner Boost is a quick start into the Linux world for absolute beginners with little or no Linux, terminal, or coding experience. This repo contains a Linux Containerfile that has a bit of everything to have fun while sampling and learning. Check in with Rob's socials to see when where he's live and come say hello.

1. Install a terminal (preferably WezTerm)
2. Install Podman (or Docker if you must)
3. Build and run the boost container locally

podman build -t boost https://github.com/rwxrob/boost.git
podman run -it --hostname boost --name boost boost

If you want to throw away the container after running just add --rm to the run command above. Otherwise, when you exit it will still be there and you can restart and attach later to continue your work until you explicitly remove it:

podman start -a boost

When you are ready to use the man pages consider running sudo unminimize.
