# This cheatsheet contains the most often used SFDX commands for beginners to get a jumpstart.
# Hint. it is highly recommended to use `-h` to check the usage of any SFDX commands and corresponding parameters.
# For instance, use `sfdx force:auth:web:login -h` to checke what `-d` `-a` parameters do
# List down all supported dx commands:
sfdx force:doc:commands:list

sfdx force:org:open --path one/one.app
# Delete a scratch org with alias tempTest
# Note. `-u` accepts either an username or a scratch org alias
