How

Learn how to use CLI apps.

Usage

Install using your favorite Node.js package manager:

npm i -g @jonahsnider/how
yarn global add @jonahsnider/how
pnpm i -g add @jonahsnider/how

You can also use npx when in a pinch, but a global install is preferred:

npx @jonahsnider/how <app>
pnpx @jonahsnider/how <app>

A common-ish CPU & OS as well as a recent version of Node.js (something that can run modules natively) are required to run how. Your package manager should prevent you from installing how if your system is incompatible.

how <app>

Example

Learn how to use tar:

how tar
