Note CLI Tool

This is a simple CLI tool that performs various operations around note taking. For more info run npm link then note --help.

Note Script

This is a simple script that takes a note as an argument and logs it to the console.

How does this work?

1. The first line is a shebang (hashbang) that tells the operating system to run the script with Node.js.
2. We need to have bin in package.json to make the script globally available.
3. Link the script to the global npm folder with the command npm link.
4. We can run the script from the command line with the command note <your-note>.

NodeJS VS Browser

• Syntactically both are same coz they are indeed runtime for JavaScript

• They both are runtime for JS, allowing JS to run(execute) and provide some set of global objects/variables and modules/packages

• The main difference is that while browser has to do things regarding rendering content on screen hence it provide global objects like document and all where as node runs on a system hence providing things like fileIO and networking(http)

• Like when we log the console is browser console is case of Browser(V8) while in case of NodeJS its system console

process.argv

• It's an array that contains the command line arguments passed to the program

• First element is node executable path, second is the path of the file being executed and rest are the arguments passed to the file
