    Do you have any specific examples to cite? The snippets are meant to be run in POSIX-compliant shells like dash/yash/ash/etc, not just Bash in compatibility mode.

    In fact, there used to be a section which listed workarounds[1] for bugs in dash, but they have since been fixed[2]. If you are still using an old version of dash, you may need to use them.

    Personally, I would steer clear of a script that installs dependencies on it's own. Us sysadmins prefer to manage our own dependencies, generally speaking. Instead consider a README that outlines how to meet/install dependencies for the script, or try to find ways to write your script in pure Shell or Bash without using tools like awk, jq, etc. Consider having a look at the Pure Sh Bible for examples of how to do many useful things in pure Sh.

    There is the "pure bash bible" but it seems less than maintained these days: https://github.com/dylanaraps/pure-sh-bible

    Otherwise you're stuck reading the POSIX standard: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V...

    I'd start with TLDP bash beginner's guide. This website also seems to be worth something. I'd also try out some of the terminal games (since that is your ultimate goal) and go through their source code. For e.g. bashcrawl, Command-line Heroes etc.

    In case you've never played, Red Hat podcast Command Line Heroes, has a nifty little game based-on bash and built-in Linux commands. It's been out for a few years now, but somehow I had never seen it until now. Just thought I'd share.

    Once you know the basics you can the move on to Command Line Heroes: BASH . It too is a game which will challenge your knowledge and help you learn.
