There's a ton of great info packed into this article. It's definitely been a struggle over the years to find a balance between when to prioritize CLI over UI development for Cloud services, but I think they arrived at a sweet spot when it comes to building complementary experiences that help one out where it is most appropriate.

I used to work on a product UI that provided the equivalent CLI command for every action you perform in the UI. Use the UI to learn the CLI - complementary experience.
