cbt: List tables in the current project.
$ cbt ls
try on your machine

The command "cbt ls" is related to the Cloud Bigtable (CBT) command-line tool, which is used for interacting with Google Cloud Bigtable.

The "ls" stands for "list" and is a commonly used Unix command for listing files and directories in a specified location.

In the context of "cbt ls", it lists the names of the tables available in your Google Cloud Bigtable instance. It provides a quick way to see the table names without retrieving any other details.

When you run the command "cbt ls" in the terminal or command prompt, it will connect to your Google Cloud Bigtable instance and retrieve the names of all the tables available, displaying them in the output. This can be useful for getting an overview of the existing tables in your Bigtable instance.
