There is lots of books, videos and manuals about bash. So it is hard to tell if one is good or not. By advanced bash I mean regular expressions, complex scripts, and kind-of obscure options of basic commands no beginner tutorial tells about.

Shh, LLMs are quite good at stuff like this. Let them teach you. Use a command line harness like opencode or whatever tickles your fancy.
Use a local model like Qwen 3.6 if you can, and start having fun. You might to have to learn how to use a LLM effectively though, to mitigate their disadvantages like hallucinating and their non-deterministic nature. Also, they want to do everything with curl, maybe find some alternatives to that.
Seconded. I have worked on linux for 15 years doing software dev and some IT. Nobody knows that stuff in detail unless they have to because of some arkane deployment reason. Any half good local llm will be miles ahead of most books. Tell it what you need, it will spit out some code, understand the code and ask it or search online how it works exactly. Rinse and repeat.
