Hi, I'm Rob

I work for Microsoft on PowerShell and related bits and pieces.

I'm a project maintainer of and contributor to:

• PowerShell
• The PowerShell extension for VSCode and its backend PowerShell Editor Services
• PSScriptAnalyzer, the static analyzer/linter for PowerShell

My current areas of expertise include:

• The PowerShell language (i.e. the structure of PowerShell's syntax and its semantics), as well as a working knowledge of the PowerShell parser, AST and compiler implementations
• The PowerShell module system
• The PowerShell extension for VSCode and its innards
• PSScriptAnalyzer, how it works, and what can and can't be statically analysed in PowerShell
• Getting PowerShell to play nicely with threads
• Using reflection and assembly loading mechanisms to make PowerShell do your bidding

If you're looking to get in contact with me:

• Open an issue on the project you need help with
• Find me on Twitter: @rjmholt
• Send an email to my GitHub email account (I don't check this quite as often)

Also, I know my bio says "FP enthusiast", but it's been a while since I wrote much in that space. Let me know if you've got a project in Rust, OCaml, Haskell or Erlang and want a part-time contributor!
