Very WIP but my GliderUI implementation of an interface for Splitter is coming along. The GliderUI module is an excellent #PowerShell wrapper for the Avalonia toolkit. Splitter is a tool for working with Windows installtion media. github.com/steviecoaste... to see more!
Started working on a UI for Splitter using the excellent module for Avalonia, GliderUI, from @mdgrs.bsky.social. It’ll be in the next version.
Splitter is on the #PowerShell Gallery! More than just splitting ISOs, it can now slipstream drivers, packages, & files, and use custom autounattend.xml files. Check it out:
I made Splitter so that I could take Windows Server 2025 eval ISOs and split them into Standard/Datacenter ISOS w/ & w/o Desktop Experience. The resultant ISOs aren't much smaller, but they're targeted, which means less room for error. It can do more, too. Check it out.
If anyone in the #PowerShell space who loves @chocolatey.org wants my current role (I'm still here, just moving into another area), check out the posting! www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/44...

Future You deserves answers. @steviecoaster.dev treats Chocolatey packages like the versioned code they are: repo structure, Git wins, mistakes to dodge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKYA... #PSHSummit #PowerShell
If you use chocolatey be sure you take a moment to read this post. It contains very important information.
