+# AWS CLI, SDK and Cloud Shell
+
+There are 3 ways to access AWS:
+
+1. The web console
+2. AWS CLI
+3. AWS SDKs
+
+The CLI is open source and allows you to make operations from the command line.
+
+The SDKs allow you to access AWS programatically through API calls using a set of language specific APIs, including: JS, Node, PHP, Python, .NET, Ruby, Java, Go, C++.
+
+## AWS CLI
+
+You need to use an access token to setup the AWS CLI. You define access tokens per user and then user :
+
+`aws configure` to create access for that user from the command line.
+
+## Cloudshell
+
+You can use cloudshell in the AWS console as well.
+
+This will automatically use the active user's credentials. It allows for :
+
+- File downloads
+- Uploads
+- etc etc
+
+It is only available in some regions, however.
