Dutch PowerShell User Group Virtual Event December 3rd, 2025

DuPSUG had another Meetup event scheduled, which was changed from in-person to virtual on December 3rd, where I gave a session on how to code PowerShell scripts from anywhere.  🙂  In this blog post, I will highlight a few key points from the session.

Running Azure Cloud Shell locally using Docker

Azure Cloud Shell is a tool I use often and is easy to access from the Admin pages in Azure and 365. You can also use those tools in a local container and connect to it using the command line or Visual Studio Code. In this blog post, I will show you how to install everything and connect and use it locally.
