Do you remember the Shell? It’s exactly the same but limited to a specific use-case. In our case, we want to be able to manage the objects of our project:

-Create a new object (ex: a new User or a new Place)
-Retrieve an object from a file, a database etc…
-Do operations on objects (count, compute stats, etc…)
-Update attributes of an object
-Destroy an object
