This the first step to create a command interpreter to manage your AirBnB objects and it calls the console, it allows the users to manage the entities of the system using the commands explained in this manual. The users like the administrator of the Airbnb clone has the posibility of the creating and updating and managing objects and data of the application, those objects are:

• Users
• Places
• States
• Cities
• Amenities
• Reviews

• (hbnb) help: this is the help command or it can be used next to one of the command for further help:
