PowerShell's Streams Explained
Why doesn't your error handling work? Why does Write-Host break everything? The answer is streams and it only takes 20 minutes to understand them.
PowerShell has seven output streams, not one. Most people only know about the success stream, and that's why their scripts behave unpredictably. In this rapid-fire session, we'll demystify what streams are, show you the most common mistakes (looking at you, Write-Host), and give you three practical techniques you can use immediately.
You'll walk away understanding why your errors disappear, how to capture them properly, and what stream to actually use for different types of output. No fluff, no theory just the essential knowledge that separates working scripts from broken ones.
