You don't have to be a rocket scientist to move your way around the command line. There are Linux tutorials all over the internet, and if you're using the Raspbian operating system, most of the commands are those of Debian and Ubuntu, which are some of the most widely used versions of Linux. There are also many complete courses online for free if you want to get a bit more in depth with the command line.
I know, it looks daunting- what do all of those codes mean? Don't let it scare you away, help is right around the corner. Almost everything about Linux is just a quick internet search away. You can just copy and paste or write out any codes, scripts or whatever into your search bar, and a trove of information is at your fingertips. If you want to install an app or program just search " install bestprogramever raspbian" and you'll usually get step-by-step instructions. You can quite often just follow a simple tutorial with cut-and-paste code (though you should always be sure of the source before you do). I also try to understand what it is that the commands mean and how they work.
Relax and get into the command line as much or as little as you want. Make sure, however, that you have a backup of your system in case you make a mess of things, that way, if thing go wrong, it's simply a matter of popping in another Micro-SD card and restarting your system.
