How do I use Curl to download a file from the command line?

Hey there! Curl to download a file is super handy once you get the hang of it. The basic command is `curl [URL]`, but like others said, it’ll just print the content to the terminal. To save it, use `-o` or `-O`.

One pro tip: if you’re downloading from a site that requires authentication, you can use `-u username:password` to log in.

Also, if you’re on Windows, check out https://cmder.net/ for a better terminal experience. Makes using Curl way easier!
