The Angular CLI is an indispensable tool that dramatically speeds up development workflow. Commands like ng generate save so much time by scaffolding components, services, and modules with proper file structure. The ng build and ng serve commands with their various flags make development and deployment seamless. I especially find ng update useful for keeping dependencies current across Angular versions.
