CLI (Command-Line Interface) is a text-based user interface used to interact with a computer’s operating system or software by typing commands into a terminal or console. Unlike graphical user interfaces (GUIs), which use visual elements like windows and icons, CLIs require users to input text commands, providing precise control and automation capabilities. CLIs are commonly used in programming, system administration, and managing servers, where users can execute commands, run scripts, and navigate file systems efficiently. They are favored for their speed, low resource usage, and ability to perform complex tasks with simple text commands.
