Introduction to Drush
Learn how to use Drush, a command line shell and scripting interface for Drupal.
What you'll learn
In this series, we explain what Drush is, how to install it, and how to accomplish basic tasks with it, like downloading, installing and updating modules, clearing your cache, and using it to query your Drupal database. For this course, you are expected to have access to a web server where you can either install Drupal 7 yourself, or have a pre-existing installation of Drupal 7 core, with no modifications.
