| # Aspect CLI |
| |
| Aspect is the enterprise-ready command-line interface for powering your developer experience. |
| |
| `aspect` is a replacement for the `bazel` CLI that comes with Bazel. |
| |
|  |
| |
| ## Customize for your organization with plugins |
| |
| aspect-cli uses the same excellent plugin system as Hashicorp's terraform tool. |
| |
| A plugin allows you to fit aspect into your teams development process |
| - stamp out new Bazel projects following your local conventions |
| - error messages point to your internal documentation |
| - add commands for linting, rebasing, or other common developer workflows |
| - understand where your developers get stuck and provide help |
| |
| Plugins are any program that speaks our plugin gRPC protocol. |

| ## Interactive |
| |
| When running in an interactive terminal, aspect-cli helps you out. |
| |
| It can |
| - offer to fix problems that block your developers |
| - suggest better ways to use the tool |
| |
| ## Open source and no lock-in |
| |
| You can rely on aspect-cli to power your developer experience workflows. |
| |
| It is free and open-source. It is a superset of what Bazel provides, |
| so you can always go back to running `bazel` commands. |
