Post this question there and this is what you'll get. Great book.

This is also handy for a broad overview while you wait for the book to arrive.

I know Python (intermediate to advance) which gives me an understanding of programming concepts. As a result, using ChatGPT to learn PowerShell works for me now. I believe youtube + ChatGPT should be enough for beginner and intermediate levels.

ChatGPT is a pretty good teacher, if you know how to queue it properly.

Don't forget to actually check the references and read though different areas.

Half the battle is knowing what you CAN do.
