Windows CLI

Shell: PowerShell 7

PowerShell is a shell for Windows. PowerShell 7 is not the version that Windows includes, and will have to be installed.

Configuration file: Documents/PowerShell/Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1.

PSReadLine

This module brings the Unix CLI experience to PowerShell. I use it to add Vi mode, autocomplete options using Tab, and search for commands using Ctrl+R.

Software

UniGetUI is a GUI for Windows package managers. I primarily use it to install software using WinGet, the official Windows package manager. The CLI of WinGet is pretty complex, so I find UniGetUI useful for managing it in an intuitive way.

The complete list of apps I install using UniGetUI can be found here.
