About #
One of the most important parts of a developer’s workflow is shell. We spend a lot of time interacting with it. People even say mastering it would help one grow into a much better power user. So what better way to learn about it than implementing one? And that is how I ended up nerdsniping (mandatory xkcd ref: https://xkcd.com/356/ ) myself into implementing Dead Simple Shell ( DSS ) xD
Here I am to help you understand how does shell work under the hood and what are my learnings while implementing one in Rust :)
You can find shell’s code here:

What I am going to cover #
- Shell for babies
- Difference between shell, terminal and console
- Understanding different shell features
- Understanding shells from system calls perspective
- Interesting learnings from my experience implementing one in Rust
- Where can you start doing the same?
Who am I? #

I can be found either making some cool project in Rust, contributing to Rust tooling like rust-analyzer, rust-clippy or reading about type theories xD
