Posh is a PowerShell module that makes PowerShell more fun to work with.

## Improving Formatting

Posh provides PowerShell formatting for all sorts of fun scenarios, like:

### Get-Command in color

Posh colorizes commands by verb.

~~~PowerShell

Get-Command

~~~

### Get-Member in color

~~~PowerShell

Get-Command | Get-Member 

~~~

![Get-Member-In-Color](Assets/Get-Member-In-Color.gif)

### Reflection Formatter

Posh provides a formatter for reflection, to help you explore types.

~~~PowerShell

[int] | Format-Custom

~~~

~~~PowerShell

[int] | Format-Custom -View System.Type.Full

~~~

It even works on generic types

~~~PowerShell

[Collections.Generic.Dictionary[string, PSObject]] | 

    Format-Custom -View System.Type.Full

~~~

### Colorized XML

~~~PowerShell

[xml]""

~~~

## How Posh Works

Posh is a somewhat unique PowerShell module in that it does not export commands.

Posh _only_ extends the types and formatting in PowerShell.

It is built using:

* [EZOut](https://github.com/StartAutomating/EZOut)

* [PipeScript](https://github.com/StartAutomating/PipeScript)

* [HelpOut](https://github.com/StartAutomating/HelpOut)
