IDE (Integrated development environment)

This is the place where we write our script, test etc..

For Powershell We can Use:

  • ISE
  • Visual Studio
  • VS Code
  • Power Gui
  • Powershell Studio (Pay version)

 We going to use ISE with Add-on ISE steroid, it gives extra tools to ISE.

Why Do we need IDE?

We need Editor that understand our language and give as support for autocomplete, debug etc...

lets set up our environment, Powershell come in many versions currently we have 5.1 for Windows 10 (Built-in)

And 6 .Net core, We can Install 6 on any environment that supports Dot net core (Linux, Mac, Windows) 

How Can we check the version?
