I obviously don't know for sure, but as far as I know that would be a no. Most of what is taught on TreeHouse is pretty high-level stuff - learning to develop the Linux kernel would involve learning C which is a low-level language and the kernel itself is very low-level. As for developing applications for Linux, I don't think they will cover that specific topic but Java can be used to develop Linux applications since it is cross platform.

If you're really interested in that stuff I would suggest looking into Linux Academy. I would link it, but not sure how TreeHouse feels about sharing links to other learning Websites.

That's a very valid point! I would even settle for DevOps training.
