What Makes a Good Shared PowerShell Module - James O'Neill
Channel: PowerShell Conference EU
Date: 2017-05-11

Pilots joke that a landing you walk away from is OK, and if you can use the aircraft again it's a good landing. There is useful PowerShell at the 'crash landing' level - but we need a higher standard when sharing with peers, colleagues or the wider community. That's the difference between your hard work being used and recommended by others or being  forgotten. The presenter of the session wrote one of the most downloaded modules ever, and contributed the 10 cmdletments for reusable code to Manning's PowerShell Deep Dives book - but several years have passed since then and distributing code has become easier, and ideas of good and bad practice have evolved, so the time has come to see which established ideas still hold, and which new ones separate the modules that succeed from those that don't.
