In this course, you will get the chance to explore the command-line interface (CLI), starting with basics like navigating file systems and working with directories and files. Then, you will use those building blocks to tackle more advanced features and tasks within the CLI. You will also learn to turn basic commands into executable scripts and easily automate common tasks. This course will empower you to put the interface to work, take complete control of your computer, and hack your way to productivity.

Harnessing the Power of the Command-Line Interface

# Overview

Throughout this course, we’ve used various command-line tools to accomplish tasks faster than we could with a GUI. But when we combine those commands with additional logic, we can create reusable workflows. This is the key to unlocking the command line’s full potential and is a great way to increase productivity.


To create these workflows, we create scripts, which are lists of instructions or commands we want to run in the order and run them. Every command we’ve used so far is something we can use in our own scripts. Whether we need to install multiple software packages, create complex file structures, merge a bunch of JavaScript files, or compile and release software, we can write a script to make that happen.
