What is the “Computer Terminal”?

So, I am doing the Angular and NestJS course and when the creation of a service is mentioned, I don’t know what SoloLearn means by the computer terminal. Could someone clarify? Thanks

I tried the ng generate service test (instead of transport) But it gave an error saying something along the lines of ng is not a recognized prefix. (I’m paraphrasing). what IDE should I be using for angular development? is VS2017 with the Node.js workload ok? Because I have that.

Check your node js version with terminal if it is 6.9 or higher ok .This error as in stack overflow mentioned in some response ,tells you that either angular cli is not installed or not added to the path.If not is the cas update node js or try with this command npm install -g @angular/cli .
