💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with azure-storage-file-share 
Create a simple file management utility that interacts with Azure File Shares using the 'azure-storage-file-share' Python package. This utility will allow users to upload files from their local machine to an Azure File Share, download files from an Azure File Share to their local machine, list all files in a specified Azure File Share directory, and delete files from the Azure File Share. The application should provide a command-line interface (CLI) for user interaction.

Steps to complete the project:
1. Set up your development environment by installing the necessary packages, including 'azure-storage-file-share'.
2. Authenticate the application with Azure Active Directory (AAD) to access the Azure File Share.
3. Implement a function to upload files from the local machine to an Azure File Share. Ensure that the function supports multiple file uploads and provides feedback on the progress of each upload.
4. Develop a function to download files from an Azure File Share to the local machine. This function should also support downloading multiple files at once.
5. Create a feature to list all files in a specified Azure File Share directory. The output should be formatted neatly for easy readability.
6. Add functionality to delete files from the Azure File Share. Include safeguards to prevent accidental deletion, such as requiring confirmation before deleting.
7. Design a CLI interface that allows users to easily select which operation they want to perform (upload, download, list, delete).
8. Test the application thoroughly to ensure it works as expected under various conditions.
9. Document the code well, explaining how each part of the application works, especially how the 'azure-storage-file-share' package is utilized.
10. Consider adding additional features like error handling, logging, or support for different authentication methods.
