PowerShell awesome list introduction

June 1, 2015

Awesome lists are a great thing on GitHub. It’s about collecting useful resources, packages and modules of a certain technology or subject. It’s the best way of introduction if you have to learn about a new technology. Here’s a good example of a awesome Node.js list by Sindre Sorhus aka the inventor of bower, grunt and many other web tech.

I thought it would be a good idea to do the same for PowerShell. Maybe you’ve got some inputs for me, simply post them in the comment section or make fork of the Awesome PowerShell repository and commit your inputs directly.

So here’s what I’ve got so far:
