- olavk 10y agoPowerShell is the recommended shell language. But I don't think it is considered a first-class .net language because Visual Studio does not have built-in support for it.
- pjmlp 10y agoYes, it does. You can even choose it during installation on VS 2015 and VS 17. Still, there is the ISE as well, although not that feature rich.
