This is a really good idea. I think it would help a lot. Do you know of any good screencasts?

As an avid collector of links, I know of these paid sites:

[1] https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts - Seems more advanced than an intro course.

[2] http://www.letscodejavascript.com/ - Looks good, but for javascript. It does look like it's better geared toward beginners.

[3] https://peepcode.com/ - Has play-by-play's, but it's quite expensive.

Author of letscodejavascript.com here. The series is intended for professional developers, so I don't spend any time on "this is the command line, this is a variable," but we do build an application from scratch. It's very much the immersion approach, and we cover a lot of things OP is wondering about (command line, Node, npm, Git, TDD). It could well be a good fit.
