On our latest PowerShell podcast, we chatted with first-time PSConfEU speaker and all-around cool
guy Emrys MacInally. He filled us in on his conference experience and mentorship program insights. We dove into the techie stuff - getting the 411 on Windows Docker containers and using Chocolatey in offline deployments. We even picked Emrys's brain on the journey that led him to where he is today and his approach to brewing beer. We look forward to seeing what Emrys does next! Emrys has been having fun with PowerShell since 2007 and loves to deploy software.
