Complementing tools
- Acquia CLI is not an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). To use an IDE, visit Cloud IDE. It includes a pre-installed version of Acquia CLI.
- Acquia CLI does not manage or integrate with Drupal directly.
- Acquia CLI does not integrate with Pipelines. To manage Pipelines jobs, use Pipelines CLI.
- Acquia CLI is a standalone program. For most of the commands, it does not require external tools such as Composer or Drush. Libraries such as ACSF tools offer similar but limited features using Drush.
- Acquia CLI extends the Cloud Platform API PHP SDK to support Acquia products and services beyond the Cloud Platform API.
