Introduction

This document provides a comprehensive guide to the Command Line Interface (CLI) commands available in Magento 2. CLI commands are powerful tools that allow developers and administrators to interact with Magento 2 from the command line. By executing these commands, you can perform various tasks such as installing or updating modules, flushing caches, compiling code, and more.
