Etcher CLI
==========

The Etcher CLI is a command-line tool that aims to provide all the benefits of
the Etcher desktop application in a way that can be run from a terminal, or
even used from a script.

In fact, the Etcher desktop application is simply a wrapper around the CLI,
which is the place where the actual writing logic takes place.

you can run it locally with the following steps:
