A curated collection of simple, standalone Bash scripts demonstrating common shell scripting tasks, from hello-world basics to system administration utilities. It serves as both a practical toolkit and a learning resource for shell scripting.

Use cases

• learn bash scripting with simple examples
• find a script to check disk space or cpu usage
• backup a file to a remote server from the command line
• encrypt a file or folder with a password in bash
• check the weather from the terminal
• write an interactive menu script in bash
• convert text to lowercase from a file or stdin

When to choose

• you are learning Bash and want small, readable example scripts
• you need quick standalone utilities for common sysadmin tasks
• you want copy-paste snippets for loops, menus, and file handling in shell

When to avoid

• you need a robust, production-grade automation framework
• you require scripts with active maintenance, tests, or a software license
• you need cross-platform scripting beyond Unix-like shells
