Installation & Setup

Now that you’ve seen how the CLI was built, here is how you can install and use the finished Somethingzz CLI on your own machine!

Clone the repository: First, download the code to your local machine using Git.
Terminal window
```
git clone https://github.com/Shadow-sama287/something-cli.git
cd something-cli
```
Install dependencies: Install all the required packages (like Chalk and Commander) that the CLI relies on.
Terminal window
```
npm install
```
Build the TypeScript files: Compile the .ts files into executable .js files.
Terminal window
```
npm run build
```
Link the package globally:
Terminal window
```
npm link
```
When you run npm link, npm creates a global symlink (shortcut) on your computer that points to this folder. It looks at the bin field in package.json and wires up the somethingzz command so you can run it from anywhere in your terminal, just like a real application!

You’re now ready to use the CLI! Head over to the File Analysis Commands page to see what you can do.
