# Linux for PowerShell People

Linux often involves a lot of tools and a lot of parsing.  

This can be challenging for PowerShell People, because most of PowerShell works with objects.

PowerNix is a new PowerShell module that hopes to make Linux easier to use by providing a more PowerShell-centric experience.

If this sounds like something you'd like, consider [contributing](contributing.md).

### Exposing Linux Functionality to PowerShell

Those objects will often be formatted by PowerShell to make them more useful.
