+# Arduino Interactive CLI
+
+This tool is made specifically for those who want to transition from the Arduino IDE to the CLI , but are still scared or intimidated by the command line. 
+
+### Pre-requisites
+
+#### 1. `arduino-cli` 
+
+There are many ways to install arduino-cli. I recommend Homebrew , because all the other prerequisite tools are also available on homebrew. 
+
+##### Homebrew 
+
+In case you do not have Homebrew installed in your system 
+
+##### macOS/Linux
+
+`/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"`
+
+##### For windows users
+
+Use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and follow the instructions for Linux.
+
+To learn to use WSL , the best video is by [NetwokChuck](https://youtu.be/vxTW22y8zV8?si=mZ5w9KmT0A4_d7Zr)
+
+<br>
+
+After installing Homebrew , go to your terminal and just type this 
+
+```bash
+brew update
+brew install arduino-cli
+```
+##### Installing `arduino-cli` using the installation script
+
+If you do not want to use homebrew , you can copy and paste this installation script 
+
+`curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arduino/arduino-cli/master/install.sh | sh`
+
+**NOTE** : This script in only for Linux/macOS/WSL users. 
+
+##### Using the Pre-built Binaries
+
+You can also install the prebuilt binaries for Windows found [here](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/1.1/installation/#latest-release)
+
+#### 2. `gum`
+
+`gum` is a tool developed by the company [Charm](https://charm.sh/) . Check out their gitHub at [Charm's GitHub](https://github.com/charmbracelet)
+
+It makes it easy to create good looking Terminal User Interface (TUI)
+
+To install `gum` 
+
+<details>
+  <summary>Using Package Managers</summary>

+
+    # Windows (via WinGet or Scoop)  (Use Linux, or WSL instead of
