New feature: Powershell Resource Gallery

This is a new feature already becoming available in Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0 Preview. The PowerShell Gallery is the central repository for Windows PowerShell content. You can find new Windows PowerShell commands or Desired State Configuration (DSC) resources.

To get started with the gallery, it requires the latest version of the PowerShellGet module, available in Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0 Preview.

With the latest WMF Preview, you can:

• Search through modules in the Gallery with Find-Module


• Install modules from the Gallery with Install-Module


• Update your modules to the latest version with Update-Module


• Add your own custom repository with Register-PSRepository

Check out the Getting Started page for more information on how to use PowerShellGet commands with the Gallery. 

To just browse the exisiting packages you can simply visit the gallery.

Publishing to the Gallery is limited to an invitation only audience during the preview period.
