Did you know you can run PowerShell from Visual Studio Code?

One of the biggest strength of VS Code is its diversity and the fact it is very light weight. I have already been using VS Code to do a lot of things with Git for a while because it natively integrates nicely with Git which is a huge plus.

Now a while back I tried to use PowerShell with VS Code but it was just not working well at the time, but recently I tried again and things have changed a lot. If you install the PowerShell extension from Microsoft you can now edit and run PowerShell scripts natively inside VS Code just like you can from PowerShell or PowerShell ISE.

You can find the extension here:
