Powershell is one of the most strongest tool to go for, when you wish to do something that will
change your Operating System completely. There are lot of commands available inside the
PowerShell which makes it the strongest tool,also it provides an user like us an easy way to code or
develop as the commands are predefined,we don't need to remember those command things (cmdlets)
as there are lot of things inside it,making it hard to remember,but we can get those all stuffs by
running a simple get-alias command.
The beautiful part of Powershell is anyone can use it, which means the commands we do in Linux and
Unix,Command prompt of Windows will work perfectly fine in this Powershell.
Probably when we are asked to open Powershell for the very first time,we will be little bit confused,
because there will be two powershell in our System Powershell and PowerShell ISE.
There is not much difference in it,Powershell is used to run cmdlets directly, for example : we can
use the command "get-help" directly and it will display the result immediately., but when it comes to
make some script then its difficult to create on Powershell when compared to PowerShell(ISE)
because ISE version is simply used to make Scripts, there will be options to save that scripts,execute
after sometime and so on in ISE version,but in normal Powershell we can't save the script.without
using some editors like Notepad.
To be concluded, Powershell is like Command Prompt (cmd) where we can execute commands.
Powershell(ISE) is a tool that is used to develop Command Prompt like tools(Developer/scripting
environment).
