Funny how a simple &quot;what if AD user management looked different&quot; discussion can lead fairly quickly to 700 lines of Powershell that makes ten people&#x27;s jobs somewhat easier.<p>I can&#x27;t exactly say I&#x27;m proud of this, but I was somewhat surprised by how relatively easy it was to pull a basic GUI together...

If you&#x27;d like to look at an alternative commercial solution in a similar vein, we offer Directify. It&#x27;s offers self-serve management through a web interface. It works with any LDAP server and works on Linux &amp; Windows platforms: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dirwiz.com&#x2F;directify" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dirwiz.com&#x2F;directify</a>

I&#x27;ll be honest, I had no idea powershell could be used to build GUIs! I found it impressive enough just on its CLI merits.
