Tbh I’ve found powershell approach better and also more verbose. Powershells commands are all named in the same way, with built-in support to make finding commands straightforward. Though it takes a while to get used to it. Explorability is better IMO with an approach like powershell. The downside is even though you can setup aliases, it still seems like powershell scripts are longer to input that bash and sometimes not as powerful.

Powershell defines tons of aliases to mimic bash, eg rm is an alias for remove-item, ls for get-childitems, cat for get-content, etc. What I like about Powershell is that arguments gets aliases too, for example -cf is the standard alias for -confirm.

The best thing with parameters in PS is what you don't need to write parameter name fully, and it is supported everywhere, while only some *nix tools support it (most notably 'ip')

The cool part about those aliases is that invoking Get-Help on them (say, Get-Help ls) will show you the relevant documentation of the non-aliased full commandlet name.

I really find it difficult to find the specific command I want. The verb-noun convention doesn't really lend itself to nested subcommands. At least with the Azure CLI I can generally navigate to the command and action I want with tab completion

The Verb-Noun convention isn't that bad once you learn the approved verbs well enough to know which one the command you're looking for would be using. After you have the right verb, tab-completion works fine. Also, `Get-Command` (built-in alias `gcm`) is very helpful. E.g.

  PS> gcm *build*

  CommandType     Name                                               Version    Source
  -----------     ----                                               -------    ------
  Alias           Build-Checkpoint                                   5.8.6      InvokeBuild
  Alias           Build-Parallel                                     5.8.6      InvokeBuild
  Alias           Invoke-Build                                       5.8.6      InvokeBuild
  Application     mcbuilder.exe                                      10.0.2200… C:\Windows\system32\mcbuilder.exe

Or find everything from a module:

  PS> gcm -m InvokeBuild

  CommandType     Name                                               Version    Source
  -----------     ----                                               -------    ------
  Alias           Build-Checkpoint                                   5.8.6      InvokeBuild
  Alias           Build-Parallel                                     5.8.6      InvokeBuild
  Alias           Invoke-Build                                       5.8.6      InvokeBuild

And at least if you use `MenuComplete` for tab (`Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Key Tab -Function MenuComplete` in your profile), you can also just write `*<noun>` and hit tab. It will offer completions regardless of the verb.
