From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's not rocket science. You might need a wired connection to begin with though
you can use iwctl
example:
list interfaces (usually wlan0)
$ ip link
enter iwctl:
$ iwctl
rescan:
$ station [interface] scan
connect:
$ station [interface] connect [ssid]
list networks:
$ station [interface] get-networks
exit:
$ exit
Yes, but what if you need to download additional drivers for your wireless card
Not really. This 1 minute video is all you need: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zqITuprlL8
