Why we should use CMD for creating a new C# project?

Viewed 186

I am new to C#. I read a tutorial about C# that said to use CMD to create a new project. There is the command line:

dotnet new console -n AppName -o .

My question is why we should use this command line? We can create a new project with IDE that is very simple.

The point of that command is that an IDE is not required. Visual Studio users would typically use the IDE to create projects.
