Hi! I’m just starting to really dig into PowerShell and I want to develop good practices from the start. I know that there are a ton of good books, and a lot of videos, out there on PowerShell. From what I’ve seen, it seems like a lot of them just cover the basics. I am looking for resources that cover things like error trapping, using dialog boxes for input, going beyond the “Just make it work and call it good” approach to writing code that will run optimally (Or as near to optimal as I can get it), creating scripts that can be called from other scripts, and maybe even creating a menu system so users can select the script they want to run. I am also interested in standard naming conventions for variables, since I once got yelled at in an online forum for the capitalization I was using in my variable names! If there are generally accepted practices for naming variables, arrays, etc., I would like to learn those.
Any advice that can be offered on training resources that cover these topics will be greatly appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to offer any information that you choose to share!
Hmmm … ok … but that’s not a PowerSehll question anymore though.
And … while some of them may be downloadable others are a kind of interactive and have to be used online.
You probably will not live in a place where you never have internet. So if you want to learn PowerShell offline you may buy a good book and use the online resources when you have internet access.
