You don't need coding knowledge.

Most of the time you do not need the command line either. Think of it 
this way: you ask a question, and instead of a long procedure searching 
menus and config windows, the people that reply to you tell you a simple 
recipe on the command line that you copy into a terminal.

But you will be learning tricks with time. Keep your own notes with an 
editor.
