PowerShell for IT Professionals [#14] – Scripting – Hello World!

In this lesson we will be preparing our workstation for writing PowerShell scripts. We will start by enabling RSAT and then install Visual Studio Code which is a recommended and free PowerShell code editor.

We will then have a look at the basic function of VS Code and create a simple “Hello World” script.

Exercises
