I have not once said I do not like CLIs. I use them all the time.

But the fact remains, they are not useful when doing iOS programming, because the tooling provided does a BETTER job than the command line.



You don't think they're "esoteric and annoying" and have many "needless" problems? Or have I misinterpreted that?

Once again, better for you.


I think the currently popular cli, the old unix-based one, is esoteric, annoying, and still useful.

I think it could be a lot less of the two former and a lot more of the latter. But it will not be, because people are unwilling to even admit it has any flaws.
