Using the AWS Command Line Interface
With the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), you can create, monitor, update, and delete stacks from your system's terminal. You can also use the AWS CLI to automate actions through scripts. For more information about the AWS CLI, see the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide.
If you use Windows PowerShell, AWS also offers the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell
Note
The prior AWS CLI tools are still available, but not recommended. If you need
information about the prior AWS CloudFormation CLI tools, see the AWS CloudFormation CLI Reference
