Think you need a beast of a machine to use LLMs from your terminal? I thought so too.  A month ago, I came across the Gemini CLI and immediately dismissed it. I assumed it was just like Ollama, where you have to download and run massive models  locally. On my humble laptop, that's a definite no-go. So, for a month, I didn't give it a second thought.  Then, I stumbled upon a YouTube video that completely changed my perspective. My instant reaction? Pure regret for not trying it sooner.  It got me thinking: how many other people believe they're locked out of using powerful AI tools just because they don't have high-end hardware?  That’s why I wrote a blog post about how to get started with the Gemini CLI. It’s nothing like Ollama; it's a lightweight and incredibly effective way to  bring Google's AI right into your command line. Nowadays, I barely have to leave my terminal for anything.  If you've been holding back on using AI because of your hardware, I wrote this guide for you. Stop switching to the browser and start doing everything from  the place you love most—the terminal.  ---  #Google #Gemini #AI #LLM #DeveloperTools #CLI #Terminal #CommandLine #Coding #Programming #Tech
