Learn About CLIs (Command Line Interfaces)!

Well, it's an interface that provides a way for a developer to execute programs from commands.

In MacOS, you can do this from the terminal app.

In Windows, you can use Windows Terminal.

How Do I Get Started Learning More About CLIs?

Once you know how to open your terminal, you can install npm by following the instructions on this page.

Then, copy and paste npm i -g learnclis into your terminal and hit 'enter'. That command will download and install this CLI (which is an interactive tour of CLI basics: commands, args, and flags) for you!

From there, enter letsgo start and follow the prompts to learn more about the basic components of a CLI.

I also plan to make it more compliant with these CLI design guidelines, for example, adding a --no-color flag,
