Astro CLI Command Reference

Overview

The Astro CLI is the easiest way to run Apache Airflow on your local machine. From the CLI, you can run a local Apache Airflow environment with a dedicated Webserver, Scheduler and Postgres Database. If you're an Astro user, you can also create and manage users, Workspaces, Deployments, and more.
