- Book 1 of 4: Step-by-Step Linux Programming
Unlock the true power of the world's most popular server operating system.
If you have ever looked at a blank Linux terminal and wondered how professional software is built, this book is your starting point. You do not need a computer science degree or years of IT experience to become a Linux developer. You just need a practical, step-by-step guide that explains the "why" alongside the "how."
Your First Linux Application takes you on a chronological journey through the entire software development lifecycle. Instead of overwhelming you with advanced jargon, this guide starts at the very beginning. You will set up a professional development environment, master the command line, and learn the foundational rules that govern how Linux handles files, permissions, and running processes.
As you progress, you will put theory into practice by building a fully functional task organizer application. You will learn to write clean, modular code, handle unexpected errors gracefully, and mathematically prove your logic with automated testing.
Inside this comprehensive guide, you will discover:
-
The Linux Environment: How to navigate the filesystem, manage strict user permissions, and control background processes.
-
Development Foundations: A gentle introduction to programming logic, variables, functions, and defensive coding techniques.
-
The Build Process: Exactly how compilers and interpreters work, including how to automate your workflow using Makefiles.
-
System Interaction: How to read standard streams, process user input safely, and manage permanent data using structured formats like JSON.
-
Professional Delivery: The essential steps for tracking your code with Git, packaging your software for distribution, and deploying it securely to a live server.
Whether you are a student seeking hands-on experience, a Windows user expanding your skill set, or a curious beginner ready to write your first line of code, this book provides the exact roadmap you need. You will learn to think like a systems engineer, isolate your dependencies, and deploy reliable software that commands respect.
Take control of your operating system today and build something extraordinary.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
