AutomatedLab 101 in 1200 seconds or less
summary
AutomatedLab is a PowerShell module that creates repeatable Hyper‑V or Azure labs using three commands to define a lab, add machines and execute the build; it creates a lab sources folder for ISOs and a tools folder to copy installers. It builds multiple VMs (domain controllers, SQL Server instances) and runs configuration scripts — the demo installs Chocolatey on a VM and uses it to deploy software. Install via MSI or Install‑Module from the PowerShell Gallery; previews fix issues.
