![PowerShell Logo](assets/Powershell_64.png) PowerShell
========================

PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management platform,
consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built
using the [.NET Command-Line Interface](https://github.com/dotnet/cli).
PowerShell provides full access to COM and WMI, enabling administrators to
automate administrative tasks on both local and remote Windows, Linux, and OS X systems.
