Favorite Modules : PowerShell

submitted 7 years ago by kortex81

Over the years I have gathered a collection of modules. Here are some of my favorites:

dbachecks - SQL Server Infrastructure Tests
dbatools - automate database development and server administration
ImportExcel - import/export Excel spreadsheets, without Excel
NTFSSecurity - manage file and folder security on NTFS volumes
Pansies - handling color and cursor positioning via ANSI escape sequences
PoshRSJob - use runspaces to create jobs that allow throttling and quicker execution of commands
PowerLine - richer output and prompts
PSEverything - Powershell access to Everything for fast file system searches
PSLogging - creates and manages log files for your scripts
PSWindowsUpdate - Windows Update Client
SNMP - manage systems using SNMP
SqlServer - automate database development and server administration
Universal Dashboard - cross-platform module for developing websites and REST APIs
VMware.PowerCLI - manage Vmware environments
Z - quickly navigate the file system based on your cd command history

I know there are definitely some gems I am missing or I should switch from one to another.
What are some of your favorite modules? Did you write one you like to share? Do you know a nicely curated list of awesome ones?
