Why is finding the download for powershell so difficult? I literally had to click through 20 pages to finally get to the download. Please keep this simple for end users. I should not have to wade through GitHub to find a download of powershell.
There's a, in my opinion, pretty simple matrix on the front page with direct downloads. Are you by chance being linked here from the Microsoft Docs?
Because I see their documentation does link directly to the releases page.
I just use the Install-PowerShell script on GitHub:
On Windows just do this:
# Download PowerShell 7 installation script
Set-Location C:\Foo
$URI = "https://aka.ms/install-powershell.ps1"
Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $URI |
Out-File -FilePath C:\Foo\Install-PowerShell.ps1
# install
c:\foo\install-powerShell.ps1 -useMSI -Quiet
@kennetherland Do you have a more specific suggestion?
I think he wants to list the one-click download and installation script on the homepage.
E.g
bash <(curl -s -L https://raw.../install.sh)
...
or
yum install xxx
...
