The Firebase CLI (Command Line Interface) enables developers to interact with Firebase services through the terminal or command prompt. It facilitates managing Firebase projects and executing common tasks such as deploying Firebase hosting, managing Firebase functions, and managing Firestore databases. On the other hand, Flutter uses the Dart programming language and provides a rich set of customizable widgets and tools to build beautiful and responsive apps.
