+# Commands
+Custom console commands on vapor are a breeze.
+
+## Example
+To make a custom console command we must first create a new .swift file, import Vapor and Console, and implement the Command protocol.
+
+```swift
+import Vapor
+import Console
+
+final class MyCustomCommand: Command {
+    public let id = "command"
+    public let help = ["This command does things, like foo, and bar."]
+    public let console: ConsoleProtocol
+    
+    public init(console: ConsoleProtocol) {
+        self.console = console
+    }
+    
+    public func run(arguments: [String]) throws {
+        console.print("running custom command...")
+    }
+}
+```
+
+ - The **id** property is the string you will type in the console to access the command. `.build/debug/App command` will run the Custom Command.
+ - The **help** property is the help message that will give your custom command's users some idea as to how to access it.
+ - The **console** property is the object passed to your custom command that adheres to the console protocol, allowing manipulation of the console.
+ - The **run** method is where you put the logic relating to your command.
+
+After we work our magic in the Custom Command file, we switch over to our main.swift file and add the custom command to the droplet like so.
+```swift
+drop.commands.append(MyCustomCommand(console: drop.console))
+```
+This allows vapor access to our custom command and lets it know to display it in the --help section of the program.
+
+After compiling the application we can run our custom command like so
+
+```
+.build/debug/App command
+```
