I've been scripting and automating things since the days of DOS 3.3, beginning with batch files. It
always felt like magic. I could cast a charm simply by typing a few characters on a keyboard. Naturally, my magic skills went from batch files to VBScript to PowerShell. Throughout it all, I've also had an internal decision tree regarding automation. Over the years, I've seen IT pros new to scripting and automation needlessly struggle.
