Welcome to the Netlify CLI! The new 2.0 version was rebuilt from the ground up to help improve the site building experience.

> ⚠️ **If you are looking for docs on [Netlify Dev](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2019/04/09/netlify-dev--our-entire-platform-right-on-your-laptop/)**, the `netlify-dev-plugin` repo was recently merged into this one. [See Netlify Dev Docs here](https://github.com/netlify/cli/blob/master/docs/netlify-dev.md).

## Installation

Netlify CLI requires [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) version 8 or above. To install, run the following command from any directory in your terminal:

```bash
npm install netlify-cli -g
```

Alternatively you may also use Homebrew: `brew install netlify-cli` (thanks [@cglong](https://github.com/netlify/cli/issues/291)).

## Usage

Installing the CLI globally provides access to the `netlify` command.

```sh-session
netlify [command]

# Run `help` for detailed information about CLI commands
netlify [command] help
```
