New YouTube Series Idea

I love shell scripting, so much so that I want to share my love for it with the world. Though I haven’t really been gaining subscribers on my channel, my videos are getting what I call a decent amount of views. My i3 video got 40 views, which in my opinion is pretty good. Though looking at the analytics is a bit discouraging (most people only watched about 10% of the video, which was around 3 minutes), it proves that I can make at least somewhat attractive videos. Videos that make seemingly complex things very simple have always been something I thought were cool, so if I made a video series about the basics of shell scripting, helpful coreutils, stream manipulations, network interaction, CLI programs, status bar scripts, and general tools to make life easier, I think it could actually be very successful and give me at least a bit more of an audience than what I currently have.

I think I would make the videos in parts like this:

• Part 1: Standard Input and Output

• Part 2: Helpful Standard Core Utilities

• Part 3: Manipulating Text and Variables

• Part 4: Networking With cURL

• Part 5: Writing a CLI program

• Part 6: Writing Status Bar Scripts

This could be really fun and informative for a lot of people.
