In this video, we will dive into the world of Command Line Interface (CLI) tools and learn how to build one using Python. CLI tools are powerful tools that allow users to interact with a computer program through text commands. They are widely used by system administrators and technical directors to automate tasks and streamline workflows. We will explore the advantages of CLI tools, such as automation, lightweight design, and scheduling capabilities.

Throughout the video, we will cover two methods of building CLI tools in Python: using `sys.argv` and the `argparse` module. These methods provide different approaches to handle command-line arguments and provide help and usage messages to users.

To demonstrate the concepts discussed, we will create a sample CLI tool using Python and PyInstaller to build an executable file. This practical example will showcase how Python can be leveraged to develop powerful command-line tools.
