#1511

Please briefly summarise the changes made in the pull request, and the reason(s) for making these changes.

  • Cut down intro by:
    • Removing the explanation of bash acronym
    • Removing analogy to language learning
    • Providing fewer example use-cases
  • Reorganized for (hopefully) better flow by:
    • Separating content into (short) "What" and "Why" sections instead of "Background" and "Shell" sections which have less clear boundaries.

If any relevant discussions have taken place elsewhere, please provide links to these.

For more guidance on how to contribute changes to a Carpentries project, please review the Contributing Guide and Code of Conduct.
