While working on Magento 2.x, you often need to run several console commands which are actually very handy in terms of managing the things such as cache, upgrades, deploy modes, indexers etc. You can check the entire list of commands by running this command:
php bin/magento list
Well, typing the full long commands are not very pleasant if it has to be done multiple times. So, we can use shortcuts instead full commands. This feature comes due to the Symphony framework which is used by each console class that implement command line functionality. The use Symfony\Component\Console\Command component to implement command line features. You can learn more in the documentation of Symphony framework. You can use shortest unambiguous name intead of full name, e.g. s instead of setup.
