My Prayer To The GNU/Linux Programming Gods

Make a game where kids learn the CLI and get rewarded for utilizing the top most used POSIX tools and helps them get comfortable with *nix OS'es.

I have books, but I do not have anything to inspire the drive to learn in my children to realy utilize *nix to full potentail. Clicking a GUI is easy.... I do not want to push heavy and have them resent it....

Will look into hacknet, thank you Gyaradong. On the point you made of "Correctness", in my college linux class I found the lab-sim software the college was paying for only checked for key items to have been completed and it only took about 5 asingments to guess where each on would be. It did not even check if you had piped the correct output to a text file, merely that the files was "Touched." Worst the little VM instance was Created/Destroyed the moment you Connected/Dissconected. · 5 months ago

I would definitely use hacknet as inspiration. hacknet eases off the technical complexity early, so you just need to keep piling it on. Basically instead of downloading a script you could force kids to create one instead.

you could also change the theme from hacking to something more friendly. one difficulty is trying to ensure efficiency and measuring correctness. · 5 months ago

I'm checking out " telehack.com " Maybe a HaX0r simulation might encourage them, that way they compete against each other... some times they really dig into stuff to see who is "Top Dog." · 5 months ago
