Part 1. PowerShell fundamentals

 

In part 1, we’ll cover some of the basics associated with using PowerShell. Although we didn’t write this book as a tutorial, there are nonetheless a few basics you’ll need to explore before you can use PowerShell effectively: the pipeline, the concept of PowerShell hosts, the shell’s help system, and so forth. We’ll dive a bit deeper into some of these topics than a tutorial normally might do, so even if you’re already familiar with these foundational concepts, it’s worth a quick read-through of these chapters.
