'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services.

Learn Linux: The complete 2020 bundle of online courses is 98% off for a limited time

Why you need to learn Linux in order to become a successful developer.
Written by StackCommerce, Partner

If you're an aspiring or even established coding professional who's trying to choose which programming languages and operating systems to focus on, you're constantly bombarded with a seemingly endless list of options. Although it's of course possible to master several major operating systems and coding infrastructures at once, the growing complexity of go-to platforms like iOS and Android have made this increasingly difficult.

If you haven't already mastered Linux, however, you should make this powerful and surprisingly ubiquitous operating system a top priority. Similar in many ways to the infamous Unix framework, Linux can be thought of largely as the operating system that other major operating systems rely on—making it a foundational system that lies at the heart of everything from the Android OS to major networking infrastructures and communication systems.

Learn the operating system that stands behind the world's most important networking and communications systems. Usually priced at over $3,500, the Complete 2020 Learn Linux Bundle will get you to where you need to be for just $69 -- 98% off its usual price for a limited time.

As intimidating as Linux may be for developers of all skill levels and backgrounds, it's actually not that difficult to master if you have the right training by your side. With 12 courses and over 100 hours of instruction, the Complete 2020 Learn Linux Bundle will get you up to speed with everything from the fundamentals of Linux to its most popular uses and applications, all through training that's easy to follow.

Given Linux's wide reach and large-scale adaptability across major platforms, it should go without saying that mastering it is one of the best things you can do in order to begin or further a career in a large number of fields related to IT and development. 

Through lessons that focus on real-world examples, the training in this bundle will teach you how to create Linux programs that can power front-end operating systems, how to write scripts that can automate processes and cut down on your build times, how to successfully implement the Linux OS in a virtualized environment using cloud platforms, and much more.

If you've barely even heard of Linux before, there's a comprehensive introductory course that walks you through the basic terminology of the OS, along with the essentials of the graphical user interface of Linux that stands at the heart of app-building and software deployment.
