We are all about psreadline! The latest psreadline just hit General Availability as of February 23rd. We highlight John Savill and his awesome YouTube channel. We cover how to get psreadline up and running in VsCode. Lastly, we talk about some of our favorite features. Jordan likes the command prediction that uses your command history. Andrew loved CTRL + R which allows him to do a quick search to find an old command so he can reuse them.

About the Authors
Andrew Pla
PowerShell MVP, podcast host, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit
I’m a technical educator and community builder. I’m a Microsoft PowerShell MVP, podcast host, speaker, and Community Director of PowerShell Summit. I also work at PDQ alongside sysadmins and IT pros every day.
Community isn’t just what I do. It’s where I get my energy. I genuinely light up when I see someone land a new job, level up a skill, or show up to their first conference. I love sharing that passion with others.
Every week I host a live podcast and stream on YouTube covering PowerShell, automation, and the humans behind the keyboards.
If you’re on your IT journey and need someone in your corner, you’re in the right place. Find more at andrewpla.tech/links.
