Obviously, this is a totally subjective opinion without much critical thought - but for me PowerShell is just...ugly. Its ugly to write, the PowerShell Terminal in Windows is aesthetically ugly (the blue, yellow, and red). Error output is verbose (good) but awfully formatted. The whole thing just makes it feel "cheap" to me. Find it really hard to get over that bias now when I need to work in PS.
- vladvasiliu 4y agoWith the new Windows Terminal you can get more pleasant colors. But of course, the syntax stays the same. And, to me, one of the worst things is how laggy it is (on an 11th gen i7 with some kind of nvme drive).
- rafabulsing 4y agoYou can change the color scheme in the classic PowerShell terminal as well: https://beebom.com/how-change-powershell-color-scheme-windows-10/ https://beebom.com/how-change-powershell-color-scheme-window...
- zokier 4y agoNobody has accused Perl, Bash, cmd, or VBscript of being particularly pretty either, and that is the company powershell is in.
- oblio 4y agoYou can change those colors in 10 seconds :-)
