- a collection of things i've worked on at various companies
- i typically work with Microsoft (Entra / Intune / Azure) in a system administrator role wherever i am at, so that's the role(s) these tools are tailored for
- this means i deal with anything and everything in a jack-of-all-trades generalist role
- some tools may be very specific to whichever environment i was working at when i made it, some may be more generally useful
- every environment i have ever been at has been HAADJ so if you're a Windows admin you're already groaning, this repo therefore has a ton of weird wonky stuff to clobber on-prem stuff together for use with cloud stuff
- you can build an entire career out of helping orgs transition from HAADJ to AADJ 🎉
- i recently added a docs repo here to store documentation on a wide variety of topics i encounter
my most used links
- Intune Automation - one of Ugur Koc's websites, extremely useful and professional Powershell scripts to use in your environment
- Ugur's GitHub - additional very helpful resources provided for free by Ugur
- Rudy Ooms' blog - Rudy is extremely prolific in his writing and extensively details how Intune really works behind the scenes
- PatchMyPC blog - more posts by Rudy here and the PatchMyPC team, a good blog even if you don't use PMPC
- T-Bones' blog - a very helpful blog and where i started learning to use Azure runbooks from
- WinAdmins blog & Discord - very useful resources here, and having an active Discord full of fellow Windows Admins is 👌
- Jeffrey Snover's blog - invented Powershell
⚠️ not frequently updated and mostly abandoned but some good old info on here - boot.dev - a great place to learn backend engineering concepts and languages, a little on the pricy side but i think its worth it
- learning C# via gamedev, beefing up my developer skills - Unity, MonoGame, FNA, .NET - I like C# a lot, it directly helps me with future Azure stuff -> check out more here
- boot.dev and gaining better "devops" / "backend engineer" skills - Golang, Python, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Git, etc. - these topics are all DIRECTLY related to my current goals of "doing what i am currently doing, but better"
- MS Certs? - maybe, on the one hand i don't think certs are valuable for career advancement, and almost no job has ever asked me about a cert -- but on the other hand, they are pretty handy little self-contained goals with clear learning paths. I have an AZ-900 already, the entry level one, but maybe like an MS-102 and then work up to the bigger expert level ones? I'd think my big goal with this if I was going to go after more certs would be to go for the AZ-305. if i git gud at C# then there's Azure developer certs too like az-204, or devops ones specifically like az-400.
