## Description :
|
18 |
|
|
Yargs helps you build interactive command line tools, by parsing arguments and generating an elegant user interface.
|
19 |
|
|
|
20 |
|
|
It gives you:
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
|
|
* commands and (grouped) options (`my-program.js serve --port=5000`).
|
23 |
|
|
* a dynamically generated help menu based on your arguments.
