Linux distros come with a terminal. We can write mini-programs called "shell scripts". In fact, it is my preference to run Linux without the desktop interface called Gnome which you can think of as a program on top of Linux.
The shell commands are entirely capable of database, wordprocessing, file management, bulk file searching, games, programming, internet surfing and other things but most users prefer a GUI interface with menus and buttons.
With the shell commands you get the feeling of reaching behind the mirror, so to speak, to fix things.
I don’t know what distro (flavor) of Linux you have, but for instance, I run Ubuntu and with that distro comes packages I can download, and install which makes up a program I want such as mp3 players, video editors and so forth.
There are 2 main script libraries for shell scripting — bash and borne, plus a lot of others but for the most part shell is bash.
Linux is a kernel, not an OS.
A kernel is what makes programs run, but it is *not* a system. only when you add GNU programs, do you have a system.
There are thousands of commands, it would take a month to write them all. In any case for browsing you need to us a graphical interface like gnome or kde, and a browser such as Firefox. commands will not do this.
