Build the Module

NOTE: I'll eventually create release artifacts, for now manual build is required

Clone the repo and build the module

git clone https://github.com/MartinSGill/Profile.git
cd Profile
/.build.ps1

Import the Module

Import-Module <path-to-repo>/Profile/artifacts/MartinsProfile

Update your Profile

If you want the module to load automatically every time, then update your profile with the line above.

You can find your profile path with

$PROFILE.CurrentUserAllHosts

Troubleshooting

On Windows you can hold the "shift" key while starting the profile to enable debug output.

Alternatively you can set $env:MyProfileDebugMode before attempting to import the profile to enable debug output.
