# Linux Navigation Basics: Basic Commands

Linux Navigation Basics is about using simple commands to move around and manage files on your computer. For example, cd lets you go into different folders, ls shows you what files and folders are inside, and pwd tells you where you are currently. These commands help you easily find and organize your files.

```bash
# Change directory
cd /path/to/directory  

# Lists files and directories in the current directory.
ls  

# View current working directory
pwd  

# Displays the manual page for a command
man ls
```

In this brief introduction, we will discuss and explore these basic commands and how they aid us in navigation around the Linux environment.
