# linux & windows terminal

Practise real commands safely. Switch between a Linux (bash) shell and a Windows (CMD) prompt, each with its own files, users and processes. Type a command from the other system and it will tell you the equivalent. Everything is simulated in your browser — nothing touches a real computer.

Built by Ayush Hamal. The shells understand about 50 Linux commands and 40 Windows commands, with pipes, redirects, permissions and realistic error messages. Ping results and network details are simulated: no real network traffic is sent.
