A user interface is where human and computer interaction can occur. This interface allows a user to operate hardware, while also giving the user feedback about the state of the machine and their input. This interface can occur in many different spaces, but the two most common are listed below.

Graphical

A graphical user interface is a type of user interface displayed to a user, allowing them to interact with the hardware using a input device and graphical elements, such as menus or icons.

Command Line
