WP-CLI (https://wp-cli.org/) is the command-line interface for WordPress. It offers a complete alternative to the WordPress admin dashboard, often even surpassing its functionality or enabling new use cases. It also comes with a rich ecosystem of
third-party commands that are bundled in Composer packages or directly integrated into WordPresss plugins or themes.
