What is powerShell?
PowerShell: A Microsoft shell and scripting language that passes structured objects between commands rather than plain text. It ships with Windows and also runs on Linux and macOS. Its command names differ from Bash, so Windows learners often use it or Windows Subsystem for Linux.
