A GUIded Tour

slides:none on file

Demos show concrete results: an interactive menu that uses Out-GridView multi-select to pick and act on local accounts, a lightweight UI built by piping metadata into Show-Command as parameter UI, and a WPF XAML form that Bing Co‑Pilot generates in three prompts then gets tweaked in Visual Studio. A PowerShell Universal page exposes scripts with a scheduled refresh (~20s) and buttons that run simple scripts, and wrapping with PS2EXE still requires PowerShell and .NET so the executable is not fully standalone.
