Ask HN: What's your favorite CLI and what makes it great?
3 points by tristenharr 7 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
As an example one of my favorite CLI’s is the gcloud CLI. Some things that make it great are that their are things like the “—no-launch-browser” flag for if you are running in a headless environment. Another thing I like is that all commands allow you to pass a “—format=json” flag to get the respond of the command as JSON.

I’m curious what CLI’s does HN love and why are they great to use?




bash all day long, baby!
