What is MonsterJS CLI

The MonsterJS CLI is an efficient and user-friendly command-line interface tool that is designed to simplify the process of creating new projects and generating MonsterJS files such as components, services, and more. Although it is not mandatory to use the CLI when building MonsterJS applications, utilizing this tool can offer great advantages to developers.
