Advanced Functions and Parameter Techniques

" summary

Hands-on workshop style session that actually shows code: VS Code demos, PowerShell 7 behavior, and live fixes rather than slides. Covers dynamic parameters with a real extension-attributes example, parameter validation (ValidateScript/ValidateSet/ValidateRange), pipeline behavior and performance (ForEachObject vs for / -Parallel / runspaces), error handling and custom error variables, and a JSON-driven configuration system plus a quick hide-windows function demo — most examples run live and are runnable from the uploaded code.
