Windows PowerShell
Windows PowerShell is a task-based command-line shell and scripting language built on the .NET framework for system administrators and power-users. However, Windows PowerShell becomes PowerShell Core after version 5.1. The new edition of PowerShell is built on the .Net Core technology that make the PowerShell becomes cross-platform.
Windows PowerShell Cmdlet
Command prompt commands are DOS prompt type commands which are interpretered by Windows command interpreter, Cmd.exe. Windows PowerShell is another Windows command-line interpreter, PowerShell.exe using Windows shell framework technology. The line input command of PowerShell is called a cmdlet. A cmdlet is a lightweight command used in the Windows PowerShell environment to perform an action. Since PowerShell is developed using the .NET framework, a cmdlet initializes an instance of .NET framework class, instead of a stand-alone executable. Cmdlet processes input data in form of an object from the pipeline and also deliver output data in form of object to the pipeline.
