PowerShell Crescendo First Look

PowerShell Crescendo was made generally available by Microsoft in March 2022. It's a new framework to allow you to create PowerShell cmdlets that use any underlying command line tool, with all of the PowerShell standards and goodness, while also returning the results as PowerShell objects, rather than text.

Agreed! There’s some need for improvement which the team are working on for some advanced cases, but I really like what they’ve achieved with Crescendo!
