Automate your PowerShell demos

Delivering a talk? James Brundage has just released an add-on giving you a rich demo environment right within PowerGUI Script Editor!

So next time you want to show PowerShell, all you need to do is:

1. Install James’ add-on onto your machine,

2. From Demo / Select Demo, chose the demo script you want to use,

3.  Click Start Demo.

4. Then optionally undock the demo control window and move it to presenter screen so your audience does not see it 😉 and click Next as you proceed:

The demo will go command by command, at any time you can intervene and just execute something in the PowerShell Console pane, show variables, and so on. And obviously when you are done – you can just switch to another script.

This is basically Jeffrey’s start-demo script + ability to see the demo library right in the PowerGUI Script Editor + the nice reach environment with intellisense and other goodies!

Next time you present PowerShell – use James’ demo tool. Download it right away and give it a try.

This add-on is participating in the PowerGUI Challenge 2010. Got a great add-on idea? Take part in the contest!
