try on your machine

This command is used to launch a program using the CS (Coursier) launcher. The CS launcher is a command-line tool that can fetch and execute programs defined in a given Maven or Ivy repository.

The command has the following elements:

cs launch: This is the command to launch a program using the CS launcher.
${group_id}:${artifact_id}:${artifact_version}: These variables are used within the command to specify the artifact to fetch and execute. The group_id represents the organization or group that developed the artifact, the artifact_id represents the name of the artifact, and the artifact_version represents the specific version of the artifact.
--main-class ${path-to-main_class_file}: This flag is used to specify the main class of the program to be executed. The ${path-to-main_class_file} should be replaced with the actual path to the main class file within the artifact.

By executing this command, the CS launcher will fetch the specified artifact from the defined repository and execute it, running the specified main class as the entry point of the program.
