PowerShell.Lib Repository

Hello and welcome to my PowerShell.Lib repository.

In this repository, you'll find various PowerShell projects that I've created over time. Most of these projects came about simply because I was interested in the respective topics and wanted to know if and how I could implement them in PowerShell. Of course, I have far more scripts, code snippets, etc., than what I've uploaded and made available here. The projects I've provided here are (at least for me) something special. And that's why I decided to make these personal projects available here on my GitHub account in this repository.

Some projects are classic, purely console-based applications. Others, however, provide complete user interfaces and are fully functional applications. There are also some projects that have already been released in a fully functional version. These projects are listed below. Projects that are located in this repository but are not listed below (or do not offer a download on the release page) are sometimes still under development. These programs can be used, but may still contain bugs.

Some also use special fonts. All fonts are free, open-source fonts from Google.
Just click on the badges below to visit Google Fonts Website or FAQ.

     

However, there are some minimum requirements to use these scripts.
Please make sure you have at least the following setup.

Minimum Requirements:

     

Clicking on the badges above will take you directly to the website of the selected topic, where you will find download options, installation instructions and many more informations. If you already meet all those mentioned requirements, you're ready to go.

The following list shows some projects that were thoroughly tested during development and released in a bug-free, fully functional version (checked to the best of my knowledge and belief). These projects are either simple application examples for specific scenarios in WPF applications for PowerShell, or they are fully functional apps that perform specific functions, etc.

As mentioned, each of the following projects was extensively tested and, after successful completion of testing, released here on GitHub in an official version for download.

Note

Despite all the measures I have taken, it is of course possible that there are still some bugs in the applications.

Enjoy browsing my PowerShell.Lib repository ☺️ !
