Because many users would rather not learn how to use 12 different cli commands. Many software dev can't even be bothered to learn how to copy/paste text content in the terminal or vim that spans longer than the screen. A Web page makes things simpler, everyone has a browser. I built an internal web tool, replicated what the ones found on the Internet do, and developers in my organisation are using it daily.
