Bash/Shell scripting is the practice of writing executable scripts using shell command languages to automate system tasks, deployments, and data processing pipelines on Linux and Unix systems. It is a foundational skill for backend developers, DevOps engineers, and system administrators who need to glue together command-line tools and manage servers. Scripts commonly handle file operations, environment configuration, and scheduled jobs via cron.
