Overview of this book

For the beginner or intermediate user, this Linux book has it all. The book presents Linux through Manjaro, an Arch-based efficient Linux distribution. Atanas G. Rusev, a dedicated Manjaro enthusiast and seasoned writer with thousands of pages of technical documentation under his belt, has crafted this comprehensive guide by compiling information scattered across countless articles, manuals, and posts. The book provides an overview of the different desktop editions and detailed installation instructions and offers insights into the GUI modules and features of Manjaro’s official editions. You’ll explore the regular software, Terminal, and all basic Linux commands and cover topics such as package management, filesystems, automounts, storage, backups, and encryption. The book’s modular structure allows you to navigate to the specific information you need, whether it’s data sharing, security and networking, firewalls, VPNs, or SSH. You’ll build skills in service and user management, troubleshooting, scripting, automation, and kernel switching. By the end of the book, you’ll have mastered Linux basics, intermediate topics, and essential advanced Linux features and have gained an appreciation of what makes Linux the powerhouse driving everything from home PCs and Android devices to the servers of Google, Facebook, and Amazon, as well as all supercomputers worldwide.

Part 2: Daily Usage

In this part, we cover all essential topics for installing any type of application – official, third-party, office, gaming, Windows-based, and so on. It starts with GUI installer specifics and the supported application containers, adding essential notes on different packages. For the most important types of software – office tools, mail clients, and browsers, there is a detailed review explaining which are the best and why. In Chapter 6, we add short lists of the tens of free applications in any major category, emphasizing messaging applications and text editors. We then have a dedicated review of the gaming category, as its development in the Linux world has exploded in the last six years. As .deb packages are the most commonly used, a short section explains when and how conversion is possible.

Chapter 7, the last in this part, drives into the absolute power of terminals and commands. It is an excellent primer to lay the base for most of the rest...
