DevOps & Deployment

1. Linux & the Shell (~10h) — You can land on an unfamiliar Linux box over SSH and orient yourself: what's running, what's failing, where the logs are.
2. Networking & How the Web Serves (~6h) — You can trace a request from a typed URL to a process on a port — DNS, TLS, proxy, server — and say exactly where it broke.
3. Docker & Containers (~10h) — You can put any app in a container that builds the same everywhere — and debug it from the inside when it doesn't.
4. CI/CD with GitHub Actions (~8h) — Every push to main tests, builds, and ships your code with no manual steps — and a red X stops the ship.
5. Deploying on Free Tiers (~8h) — You can put a real app on the public internet for $0, with secrets handled properly — and you know each tier's limits before they bite.
6. Monitoring, Logs & Incidents (~8h) — You find out your app is down from an alert, not from a user — and you have a runbook for what to do next.
