While GUI's are not the first thing you think of when it comes toPowershell, it is often an overlooked option when it comes to Powershell tools. GUIs can sometimes help you facilitate your script and see all of your tool's options at a high level, while also helping to eliminate human error when it comes to typos (such as typing the correct employee name, or the correct parameter, and so on). Powershell GUI's also allow you to share your tool with delegates on your team or in your business, who may not be as comfortable working in a Powershell console environment.

In this course we look at the basics of GUIs, with recommended tools and concepts advocated by industry leaders and authors such as Don Jones and Jeffery Hicks. You have what it takes to make GUIs, and our aim in this course is to equip you with the basic skills, and inspire you to go forth and make your own GUIs for your awesome Powershell tools!
