Bash mkdir Command - Make Directories

The mkdir command is used to create new directories.

It's a simple way to organize files into folders.

To create a new directory, use mkdir directory_name :

The mkdir command has several options to customize its behavior:

• -p - Create parent directories as needed
• -v - Show a message for each created directory
• -m - Set file mode (permissions)

The -p option lets you create parent directories as needed.

The -v option prints a message for each directory created, which is helpful for tracking what happens.

The -m option allows you to set the file mode (permissions) for the new directories.

This is useful for ensuring the correct permissions are set at creation.
