POWER400 Advanced PowerShell
This course is a continuation of MOC 10961 or AZ-040, Automating Administration with Windows PowerShell. We will be taking a deep dive into the development of PowerShell cmdlets and modules. Time will be spent on the theory of how to design your cmdlets as well as the proper structure of the programming code to facility cmdlets that work with the PowerShell piping in keeping with community standards. We will also be exploring how to place a graphical user interface on top of our PowerShell code so we can build tools that are available to everybody. This course will feature both hands on labs and challenged exercises to help you practice and the skills presented in class and develop you coding skills as we work with both Windows PowerShell and PowerShell 7 utilizing VSCode as our development environment.
