5 PowerShell Core is a cross-platform (Windows, Linux, and macOS) automation and configuration tool/framework.
7 The core benefit of running `pwsh` on Mac or Linux is that you get a way to debug Windows 10 scripts without having to boot up Windows 10.
9 For example, if you want to create a `curl.exe -A "windows" | powershell` script for Windows 10 (as we do), it's helpful to be able to do some level of debugging on other platforms.
13 For example, if you wanted to install Node.js with powershell and
14 webinstall.dev, you can:
17 curl.exe -s -A "MS" https://webinstall.dev/node@lts | powershell
