Bash / Shell Playground

Practice the shell skills data engineers use daily — pipes, grep, awk, sed, and CSV wrangling — in a safe virtual filesystem with no OS access.

In this workspace

What you get when you open Shell Terminal.

Execute
  • Interactive REPL

    Type commands and press Enter — no separate Run needed

  • Virtual filesystem

    Pipes and paths against mounted sample/local files

  • Data panel

    Upload CSVs and inspect them from the shell

  • AI + packages

    Tutor and runtime package inspector in the side panel

Starter template

# sales.csv loads automatically from the Data panel
head -5 sales.csv

echo "--- West region ---"
grep West sales.csv

echo "--- Total revenue ---"
awk -F, 'NR>1 { sum += $3 } END { print "Total:", sum }' sales.csv

echo "--- Top regions ---"
tail -n +2 sales.csv | sort -t, -k3 -nr | head -3
