Bash

Bourne Again SHell, the standard shell for Linux and macOS.

When to Use

• Linux System Administration & Automation: Scripting OS maintenance, cron jobs, file backups, and package management.
• CI/CD Pipeline Glue Code: Orchestrating build, test, and container push steps in GitHub Actions and GitLab CI.
• Docker Entrypoint Scripts: Configuring environment variables, secrets, and database wait-for loops during container startup.
• Command-Line Wrappers: Wrapping multi-step CLI commands into simple, repeatable internal developer utilities.

Quick Start

#!/bin/bash

NAME="World"
echo "Hello, $NAME!"
