Playground (powershell edition)

Welcome to a virtual dumpster of code, have fun diving.

Words of caution

Like all code, don't copy and paste without understanding, but exercise a little extra caution here. I did say it might not be done.

FAQ

Why a playground?

I write a ton of code that is not refined enough to post, or not fully working/finished, or not widely useable. But sometimes there are good bits in there that never make it anywhere else

Why bother sharing it all?

My thoughts also, and why there was never a Playground before. Some of the code is useful, some ideas, or sometimes a great starting point or useful to someone. Maybe someone can fork it and turn it into gold.

Will the code be useable?

Maybe. I will post code that I never got working here. I will post some code that I abandoned, before (or after) it worked. Although, most of this will probably be code I wrote for one specific use case. The code will likely be stuff that I never built in proper debugging, trapping (try and catch, try and except), data validation etc.

How will I know the state of the code

I will try, with no promises, to include a readme or comments at the top to give the last known state.

Why is there so little here?

Assuming this is the future and I have added something... I am going to add code that I create going forward, I am not going to sift through the years of stuff as often there are references that need to be cleaned out, etc. (not passwords, AVOID putting passwords in your code.
