Is it worth it to master the (newly reloaded) Windows Terminal?


If you work with Windows at all it's worthwhile to have some Powershell scripting chops for system automation. And while it's kind of like Bash, it's syntax is more common and everything is an object which is nice. No more string parsing hoops to get basic info.


Windows Terminal is like iTerm2 / xterm etc. CMD.exe, Posh is like bash, zsh, etc.

It's less likely you'll "master" a terminal emulator. (Other than figuring out settings where the defaults get in your way of using it).
