1. Setup: Windows Terminal and PowerShell 7 (Novice): Install PowerShell 7 with winget, make it the shell Windows Terminal opens every time, make the practice folder this course works in, and learn when a job needs a window run as administrator.
2. Setup: PowerShell on a Mac or Linux (Novice): PowerShell 7 runs on a Mac and on Linux too, installed with Homebrew or Microsoft's package for Ubuntu and started with pwsh, with a few differences in paths and a few Windows-only lessons.
