In the comments section of a recent post I found out that Windows PowerShell had been ported to Linux. Had no clue it was a thing.

Went looking and found this old article attempting to explain why they did it. Not remotely interested in giving up Bash for PowerShell, but I thought it was interesting enough to share. The article seems to be from 2016.

I have never been more tempted to check the NSFW box, but I’ll leave it open for now unless a mod complains. :-D

    Not trying to be difficult, but that’s what get-member is for - it’ll dump all the properties for a given object.

    I get it - it’s way different from bash - speaking as someone who has been using Linux since Debian Hamm. Side note, net installers over dialup really sucked.

    I was originally forced to use powershell when I joined up with a virtualization team for work and they used PowerCLI.

    It was bonkers how easy it was to get reproducible scripts bundled up for the more junior engineers.
