Why Choose PowerShell?

1. Command-line Shell

PowerShell is a modern shell that works with .NET objects instead of plain text. Its key features include:

• Robust command-line history
• Tab completion and command prediction (via PSReadLine)
• Support for command and parameter aliases
• Pipeline support for chaining commands
• In-console help system similar to Unix man pages

2. Scripting Language

PowerShell automates system management and is widely used in CI/CD environments. Built on the .NET CLR, all inputs and outputs are objects, eliminating text parsing. Features include:

• Extensible through functions, classes, scripts, and modules
• Customizable formatting system for output
• Extensible type system for dynamic types
• Built-in support for CSV, JSON, and XML formats

3. Automation Platform

The PowerShell ecosystem includes modules to deploy and manage nearly any technology, making it a versatile automation platform.

4. Configuration Management

PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) enables infrastructure management with configuration-as-code. Benefits include:

• Create declarative configurations and repeatable deployments
• Enforce configuration settings and report on configuration drift
