Zen Coding for PowerShell
Get-ZenCode [-ZenCodeExpression] <Object> [[-InputObject] <Object>] [[-outPath] <Object>] [-show]
Extension of zenCoding from WebEssentials for Visual Studio with PowerShell pipeline support. Can be used to expand zenCoding expressions within PowerShell ISE First of all let's clarify what Zen Coding actually is. According to their website: Emmet (formerly known as Zen Coding) is a web-developer's toolkit that can greatly improve your HTML & CSS workflow. But what does this have to do with PowerShell? At least I find myself quite often trying to convert PowerShell output into HTML or even using the text manipulation capabilities of PowerShell to dynamically construct some static web content. Yes, I hear you shouting already isn't that why we have ConvertTo-HTML and Here-Strings? Granted that those can make the job already pretty easy, but there is still an even better way to (dynamically) generate static HTML pages from within PowerShell.
head>title{test}+body>ul>li{[string]$_ + " someText " + $_}' -show
head>title+body>table>tr>th{name}+th{ID}^(tr>td{$_.name}+td{$_.id})' -show
