If the folder’s on a web server, `wget -r --no-parent http://example.com/path/` works for linux how to download a folder from command line.

`scp` is the go-to for linux how to download a folder from command line, but if you’re on Windows with WSL, check out `WinSCP` for a GUI option.
Sometimes dragging files is just easier, ya know?
