— David Baumgold in Getting to Know the Command Line
Guild’s primary interface is via the command line. Guild also supports a Python interface for work in Jupyter Notebooks.
As an engineering tool, Guild fits the ecosystem of traditional POSIX toolchains. This has a number of benefits:
- Commands are run as OS processes, which interface with a host of tools via standard input/output, file indirections, command arguments and exit codes
- Commands are programming language agnostic
- Commands can be integrated into most development environments
If you’re not familiar with running commands from a terminal, we suggest reading one of the following guides for your platform.
