In this episode, we explore different ways that the upper-bound limits of PowerShell have been pushed. We get to hear from one of the most advanced PowerShellers that we’ve met yet. He shares insight into what it was like working on the PowerShell team and how PowerShell has grown massively over time. James has been advocating for PowerShell for a long time, and he shares some details about leading the first internal PowerShell group at Microsoft and some things that came from it. We also learn about some of the awesome projects James has worked on, from RegeX, UIs, formatting, Git, and markdown. James shares details about his latest project, an extensible transpiler, PipeScript.
