Command-line interface (CLI) is a text-based user interface that allows a user to execute functions through text input (commands). Both Windows and macOS machines have their own CL interpreters:
- Command Prompt/PowerShell (Windows)
- Terminal (macOS - UNIX based)

There are also software package managers for command-line which makes working in a CLI much more comfortable of an experience.
