As someone who lives eats and breathes the Bash shell, I can say quite confidently that I can do most things I need just using this 'bulshittery'. Ignorance in my book is not a virtue.
What I failed to understand is exactly what was so difficult about writing and compiling software? This process can be as easy or as difficult as you wish.
Do they not have IDEs, surely that would help. I use IntelliJ as an IDE and it pretty much does everything for me, including finding dependencies.
Maybe I'm missing something, but if I can build complex Java programs without reaching for the command line surely this can be done in a scripting language without any complexity.
Also I would suggest looking at the dockerized development environments out there. (e.g. http://awvessel.github.io/)
Maybe I need to re-read this and see what I missed.
