## Introduction

This CLI tool counts the number of words, lines or bytes provided as input using the standard input (`STDIN`) connection. By default, this tool will count the number of words, unless it receives the `-l` flag, in which case it’ll count the number of lines instead, or the `-b` (or both `-l` and `-b` flags) flag for counting bytes. This version reads data from `STDIN` and displays the number of words.

## Usage

To build the app, run the following command in the root folder:

```

> go build .

```

Above command will generate word-counter-cli file. This name is defined in the `go.mod` file, and it will be the initialized module name.

After that you can run the file using the cmd and pass the text argument for our app to run:

```

> .\word-counter-cli.exe -b

...some text...

```
