Navigate to "Development" > "Terminal" to get started.

Terminal access provides you with command-line-level access to your hosting account, granting you greater control and flexibility.

Although many features can be easily managed through your Hostney Control Panel, there are instances where CLI (Command Line Interface) access becomes essential for tasks such as file management or handling GIT repositories.

With CLI access, you have the power to perform advanced operations directly from the command line, offering a comprehensive solution for managing your hosting environment.

To access your terminal, simply choose your hosting account from the dropdown menu and then click on the "Connect Terminal" button. This will grant you direct access to the command-line interface, allowing you to manage your hosting account with ease.
