## README

# Contentstack CLI


Contentstack is a headless CMS with an API-first approach that puts content at the centre. It is designed to simplify the process of publication by separating code from content.

CLI supports content management scripts through which you can perform the following tasks:

- Bulk publish content (`cm:stacks:bulk-*` via `@contentstack/cli-bulk-operations`)
- Export content
- Import content
- Clone Stack
- Seed Stack from GitHub
- Perform Launch operations
- Migrate content
- Migrate HTML RTE to JSON RTE content
- Change Master Locale
- Use Bootstrap plugin
- Manage Developer Hub apps (`app:*` via `@contentstack/apps-cli`)
- Use Tsgen plugin


## Installing CLI
### Prerequisites
Contentstack account
Node.js version 22 or above

### Installation
To install CLI on your system, run the below command in your terminal:

```
npm install -g @contentstack/cli
```

To verify the installation, run `csdx` in the command window.
