Build a Custom Linux MOTD with Bash and systemd!

Want to show system information at login in Linux—without relying on neofetch?
In this hands-on Linux project, you’ll build a custom Message of the Day (MOTD) that displays live system info every time you log in.

This video is designed as a learn-by-doing Linux project. You’ll write a Bash script, create a systemd service, and set up a systemd timer to automatically regenerate your MOTD. By the end, you’ll have a clean, professional login message that works across reboots and logins—no manual commands required.
