Command Line Tools

Command line tools are often a faster way to interact with the computer and execute programs. These tools can do anything, from copying and listing files or directories to searching specific files or words, and much more. For example, the MongoDB CLI provides a powerful interface to create, manage, and automate all your MongoDB deployments.

Most operating systems provide package managers to easily install the command line tools. A package manager also handles dependencies and updates. Some common package managers include apt, yum, brew, and choco. You can also install the command line tools manually from the tool’s official website, if the tool does not have its own package manager. For example, you can install or update the MongoDB CLI from our official website page.

Some common command line tools are ls, cd, grep, help, and mkdir.
