Tool Information

How2 is an AI tool that makes using the Unix Command-Line easier and more intuitive by suggesting relevant commands as you work.

How2 is here to improve your experience with the Unix Terminal. It’s packed with handy features for code completion that help you find the right shell commands quickly and easily. This tool is powered by several AI models that have been specially trained on Bash and Zsh commands, which means it knows what you’re looking for when you’re typing away.

One of the great things about How2 is its focus on keeping you safe while you work. It doesn’t execute any commands on its own; instead, it offers suggestions to you. This means you can explore options without worrying about code injection or unintended mishaps.

Need to whip up a quick Bash script? How2 makes that a breeze! You can also tweak your prompts to get more specific help with commands related to ‘FOR LOOP’, ‘BASH SCRIPT’, or ‘ONE LINER’. This flexibility allows you to customize your experience based on what you’re trying to achieve.

A unique feature of How2 is the ability to use an '-s' option that triggers a search on StackOverflow via Google, giving you even more resources at your fingertips. Plus, it’s worth noting that How2 isn’t just limited to Unix. It also works with PowerShell, adjusting its suggestions based on the context you’re in.

You can easily install How2 on various platforms, including MacOS, Ubuntu, Debian, and other Linux distributions, as well as Windows. If you prefer, you can also grab it through the NPM package. With How2 by your side, everything gets a little simpler and more efficient in your command-line adventures!
