Learn by building
The fastest way to learn DevOps is to build real projects and automate them end to end.
A practical order
- Linux & Bash — the foundation for everything.
- Git & GitHub — version control and collaboration.
- Docker — containerize an app you built.
- CI/CD — automate build and deploy with GitHub Actions.
- Cloud (AWS) — provision resources, then codify with Terraform.
- Kubernetes — orchestrate your containers.
- Monitoring — add Prometheus and Grafana.
Document each project in your GitHub — that is your real portfolio.
