TLDR The first Unix shell (the Thompson shell) had very limited features, mainly I/O redirection and command pipelines. We'll see how a Linux shell manages to execute commands, loops, and conditional expressions. At the end of this tutorial, we’ll have a basic Linux shell that will not do much for now, but which we'll expand and improve in the next parts.
