A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

Currently writing a blog post on how to use the Pinata CLI (link below if you're interested) and I can't help but write a passionate plea for developers to learn how CLIs work and the power they unlock. That includes:
- Navigating a command tree and using -h to learn straight from the CLI
- Piping commands into other commands 
They're honestly pretty simple concepts but once you learn them you can never go back.

A good GUI limits your options. A good CLI gives you all options.

I always ask developers which they prefer a CLI or a GUI and it is really interesting to see their responses. 🤔

It is possible to be a good developer using a GUI but it definitely limits you. 🚧

I also think just using a terminal is just tough and makes me feel like a hacker. 😤
