Detailed explanation-1: -So the CLI provides greater flexibility of use. It can be used to easily do things that are difficult or even impossible to do with a GUI. A GUI needs to use additional system resources to load the graphical part thus it is going to be slower than using the command line.
Detailed explanation-2: -The other major advantage of CLI is, with practice, configuration can be far faster compared to a GUI. With a few textual commands, a user can configure interfaces, routing protocols and access lists. These items would require multiple mouse clicks and hunting for proper pages and tabs in a GUI.
Detailed explanation-3: -Whether you are writing a code or giving instructions to the computer CLI gives better control to the user. Navigating through different icons makes the GUI slow. Thus CLI offers better speed as commands are directly given to the computer. So many professionals preferred CLI because of its speed and performance.
Detailed explanation-4: -But there is a major difference between CLI and GUI. GUI lets a user interact with the device/system with the help of graphical elements, like windows, menus, icons, etc. The CLI, on the other hand, lets a user interact with their device/system with the help of various commands.
