Implementation

Ideas

• Functions
  • Package Management
    • New-ScriptFileInfo
    • Install-Script
  • Utility
    • Get-Path -Absolute
    • ConvertFrom-SecureStringUsingBSTR
    • Write-Message
    • Get-WindowsIdentity -LoggedIn, -Anonymous
• Enhancements
  • Replace $_ with $PSItem for better visibility
  • Change string to ErrorRecord for error collection list
  • Try System.Collections.ArrayList as error collection list
• Documentation & Unit Tests
  • Get-WindowsIdentity
  • Test-WindowsIdentity

Research

• Check what will happen when we re-use function across module and import module with -Prefix parameter

• What else?
