Microsoft has been slowly moving towards Ubuntu and Open sources these days. Recently there is a big move made by Microsoft. They have Open sourced the PowerShell.
Almost all kernel has a shell to interact with. In Windows based we have Command prompt as CLI utility and all Ubuntu based will have Bash (Bourne Again Shell) to interact with. In addition to Command prompt, Windows also has a powerful utility known as #PowerShell.
PowerShell is a scripting language that is mostly used by power users such as administrators and other users to automate kernel tasks. One who masters PowerShell can unleash the real power in Windows Kernel.
PowerShell is based on .NET framework and all the commands executed will return an object. Recently Microsoft open sources Powershell by making its source code to GitHub under permissive MIT license.
They have made the binaries available for CentOS, Mac OS X, Linux kernels and Red Hat platforms. They have made the version of PowerShell based on .NET Core which is a cross platform so as to run on both Linux and Mac.
It has been released as a community based and alpha version. The official version is yet to be released by Microsoft.
P.S: The post is to create awareness and not to create any negative impact.
