.Net CLI, so ... powershell?
This looks pretty cool. I wish powershell were slightly easier to set up and use, and that there was a repo for extensions other than "google it and then download".
- travem 11y agoHave you seen the capabilities enabled by the PowerShell Gallery[1] (script and module repository) and the PowerShellGet cmdlets[2] (for interacting with repositories like PowerShell Gallery)? It looks like a useful approach to solving this particular issue.

- derefr 11y agoOne of the major tenets of this is (from what I can tell) its multiplatform-ness: it would be able to ship as the tooling in the .NET Core release for any platform. Powershell is certainly a cool shell, but it is a shell, and that makes it much less likely to be ported+packaged everywhere (Pash exists, but I don't know whether it exists as, say, an Ubuntu PPA.) Whereas, when you release a language, you kind of want its tooling to go wherever it goes.
