Wouldn’t it be nice if you could type one command that booted your vagrant box, started displaying watchdog logs, set up the correct Drush alias, and provided easy access to your remote servers? Sounds nice, right? Or maybe you use tools like Grunt, Gulp, or Sass. What if you could launch all of your tools for a project with one command? In this session attendees will see how to use the terminal every day to get work done efficiently and effectively. We will discuss an array of command line tools and how you can set up a very efficient workflow for your projects.

Who is this session for?
