Examples for to use it with PowerShell Core

[Juanito99]

Hi there,

could you provide a few simple examples that show how to use it with PowerShell Core?
That would open also cross platform GUIs for sysadmins like me 😀

Thanks in advance

This... doesn't make sense... you just use dotnet new like with every other cmd/bash.

@cra0zy you can call .net methods using PowerShell.

Oh, didn't realize that... hmm... need to test this on Linux.

@SlowLogicBoy Thanks for this comment. That is exactly what I meant.

@cra0zy Just for your reference, here is an example for traditional windows.forms library and windows powershell.

I am just looking for something to get started. A small form with an input field a few basic controls and a text-field. - That should be sufficient for most cases. Thank you 🙇‍♂️

Thanks for the suggestion! I don't have time to do this myself, but would welcome anyone to look into it and write a wiki page.

@Juanito99 Sorry for bringing bad news: using ANY GUI framework with Powershell won't work for MacOS bacause of the "GUI must be on main thread" limitation. Please see this issue: ironmansoftware/psavalonia#1 So cross-platform GUI is not possible to achieve when you start with Powershell, but you can create c# app, add Powershell Core as NuGet package and call ps1 scripts from the c#.

Not the case anymore specially on linux since psavalonia works, how is it going?
