# Description of the new feature/enhancement

As you can know PowerShell is great Scripting Language for Automation and Administration of system. and it is built by Microsoft, so I think it is very good for Azure Dev CLI to get compatible with PowerShell and make native PowerShell [Cmdlet](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/lang-spec/chapter-13?view=powershell-7.1) to provide a native and consistent user experience in Microsoft Ecosystem.

Note: As you can know PowerShell Core is portable PowerShell so I think if Microsoft provide native PowerShell Cmdlet for `azure cli` all azure cli community in all platform (such as linux or mac) can achieve unified development and operation (DevOps) experience in Microsoft ecosystem.

# Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

I think PowerShell has many guideline and documentation about writing and designing great Cmdlet and modules that Azure Dev CLI teams have to follow it for example

[Windows PowerShell Cmdlet Concepts](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/developer/cmdlet/windows-powershell-cmdlet-concepts?view=powershell-7.1)
[Writing a Windows PowerShell Module](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/developer/module/writing-a-windows-powershell-module?view=powershell-7.1)
