What is DevOps?

DevOps combines development (Dev) and operations (Ops) to increase the efficiency, speed, and security of software development and delivery compared to traditional processes. A more nimble software development lifecycle results in a competitive advantage for businesses and their customers (source: GitLab)

Well, as you said, that is a basic list... and it is a bunch of stuff we have to know at least about 30% to understand how we manage a devops role on a day-to-day basis.
I gave you a star for your repo because it is essential and it is easy to understand; I'm sharing your repo with my students :)

Cheers buddy.
