I'm a cloud and automation engineer. I like making repetitive things disappear, and PowerShell is usually how I do it.

Most of what's here started as a script to scratch my own itch that grew into something other people found useful too. Some of it is practical, some of it exists purely because it was fun to build (yes, there's an XKCD module).

• awesome-powershell-modules: a curated list of PowerShell modules worth knowing about
• AzureCAF: a module that generates Azure resource names following the Cloud Adoption Framework naming recommendations

I maintain 18 modules on the PowerShell Gallery, which have been downloaded over 2.1 million times between them. A few favourites:

Module	What it does	Latest Version	Downloads
Subnet	Network subnet calculations
Influx	Send metrics to InfluxDB
Watch	Re-run a scriptblock until its output changes
HashCopy	Copy only the files that have actually changed
Lumos	Switch your OS between light and dark themes at sunrise and sunset
AzCostTools	See where your Azure money is going

• Speed up Azure DevOps pipelines with the Cache task
• Automating SSL/TLS certificate renewal in Azure
