About ​

Build beautiful PowerShell wizards, dashboards, workflows, and free-form apps—the PowerShell way.

PoshUI Canvas release showcase: animated splash, overview, live charts, motion demos and the themed calendar

The v1.4.1 release showcase — one PowerShell script, included in the release package as Examples\Showcase-Release.ps1.

PoshUI enables IT professionals to create professional Windows 11-style interfaces using familiar PowerShell cmdlets—no WPF, XAML, or C# knowledge required.

Four Independent Modules ​

PoshUI consists of four independent modules that can be used separately:

PoshUI.Canvas (new in v1.4.0) ​

Free-form apps — lay out anything, anywhere, with no fixed shell. Where the other three modules give you an opinionated frame, Canvas gives you a blank page and ~85 cmdlets. A single .ps1 is the application: no XAML, no MVVM, no project scaffolding, no build step.
