## Overview
**OQTOPUS CLI** is a command line interface for preparing and operating local
OQTOPUS environments.
It gives OQTOPUS users a familiar command-line workflow for creating
environments, installing components, and starting or stopping local services
from one `oqtopus` command. Instead of manually arranging release archives,
configuration files, process IDs, and runtime directories, users can manage
local environments with package-manager-like commands.
**Cloud-local environment:**
```bash
oqtopus init demo --template cloud-local
oqtopus cloud-local install cloud
oqtopus cloud-local start user
oqtopus cloud-local status
oqtopus cloud-local stop user
```
**Backend environment:**
```bash
oqtopus init demo --template backend
oqtopus backend install engine
oqtopus backend start core
oqtopus backend status
oqtopus backend stop core
```
OQTOPUS CLI currently focuses on Linux and macOS local workflows.
A future Rust implementation is planned separately.
