truffle: Display help for a subcommand.
$ truffle help ${subcommand}
try on your machine

The command truffle help ${subcommand} refers to a command used to display the help documentation or information about a specific subcommand in the Truffle development framework.

Here's how it works:

  1. truffle: This is the main command used to interact with the Truffle framework. It allows you to compile, deploy, and manage smart contracts on various blockchain networks.

  2. help: This is a subcommand of truffle that displays the general usage information and lists the available subcommands of the Truffle framework. When you run truffle help, it will show the list of available subcommands.

  3. ${subcommand}: This is a placeholder representing the specific subcommand you want to get more information about. For example, if you want to learn more about the compile subcommand, you would run truffle help compile.

By running truffle help ${subcommand}, Truffle will display detailed information about the specified subcommand, including its usage, options, and a brief description of what it does. This can help you understand how to use a particular command effectively and learn about its available options.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
