Holiday Special with Gilbert Sanchez: PSScriptAnalyzer, AST, and PowerShell Gifts

In this special holiday episode of the PowerShell Podcast, we are joined by the incredibly talented Gilbert Sanchez. We dive into the world of PSScriptAnalyzer and use it as a gateway to explore and understand the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) in PowerShell. Gilbert walks us through a live demo and highlights some powerful ways to leverage the AST to analyze and improve our PowerShell code. As a special holiday treat, Gilbert comes bearing gifts—several awesome PowerShell modules that listeners can start using today.
