 Hi, I'm Sidney. I'm a PM on the PowerShell team and I'm here with Steven who's also a PM on the PowerShell team and we're so excited to be here at Ignite in Seattle this year. Yeah and we're super excited to announce that we have just released the general availability of PowerShell 7.4 today. Yeah that's right 7.4 a new LTS or long-term servicing release of PowerShell is now available to you and in this release there's as always a number of performance, security and stability improvements but we really want to highlight for you two modules that have major improvements in this release that you should definitely check out. Yeah so the first one is PS ReadLine. PS ReadLine handles a lot of the re-rendering and kind of the interactive experience of when you're interacting with the PowerShell shell and so we've done a whole lot of stability bug improvements for PS ReadLine as well as some improvements to the predictive intelligence feature of PS ReadLine which enables kind of a predictive way for you to auto-complete the commands that you're typing from history as well as a bunch of plug-in predictors. We've increased the availability for the results in predict in ListView as well as added a lot more detail so you can actually know what you are getting predicted so you can learn a little bit more about what actually is being predicted if it's something that you've never really typed before. So we call that as kind of the tooltip and some of the improvements to the ListView of the PS ReadLine predictive intelligence. So what's the other one today? Yeah so we also include in this release PS Resource Get which is a new module to PowerShell. This module is a new package manager for PowerShell and it can be seen as a replacement for PowerShell Get the module that you've probably used in the past to do things like install update and find modules from the PowerShell Gallery. Now a few exciting things to highlight about PS Resource Get. First it's compatible with a whole lot more private repositories than PowerShell Get was. It'll still work with maybe your Artifactory or Azure DevOps feed that you were using before but now you can use it with Nuke at v3 feeds and there's a credential persistence feature so you can provide your credentials at registration time and just keep authenticating into the repo. This module also has major performance improvements over PowerShell Get. So definitely be sure to check it out. I'll also say when it comes to the PS ReadLine improvements the history predictor is built in and once I started using it I quite literally could not go back. Like I started typing in a shell and I didn't know what I was doing anymore. Yeah and there's so many more improvements. This is just a tip of the iceberg of the kind of improvements that we put in 274. We have a really really hard working engineering team that really works hard to bring the best kind of PowerShell experience, the most stable and most secure PowerShell that we can bring to you and so you can check out a full list of the changes in a link provided and yeah. We'll be sure to include lots of links from this video in the show notes but also be sure to check out Microsoft dev blogs specifically the PowerShell site. We always post new releases there and from there you can get linked to all of our repos where we engage with you in the open source community. Yeah and so it's definitely encouraged to check out all of our repos that we have. We have separate repos for these different modules as well of course as PowerShell itself is open source and we highly encourage folks to submit PR, submit issues. We look at it all the time and try to keep up to date and really try to make PowerShell a community driven thing. It's really amazing. Absolutely it's been so amazing connecting with so many of you here this week but if you were able to join us this year in person don't forget to check out all of the amazing recorded sessions on the Ignite site and we hope to catch you next year. Yep. Thank you so much for watching and be sure to look out for more videos and content coming from Ignite on the ground. How's that?
