Work With Templates!

You have an idea. You know what you would like to automate. You just don't know how.

Sounds familiar? Not anymore. SystemScripter comes with tons of code samples to give you a head start. Once you then have a script that almost does what you want, it is a piece of cake to adjust and expand it until it really does what you want. And you'll discover: in a matter of hours, you become a script expert - just like that and without the pain.

What Are Those Templates?
Essentials
Templates are just little pieces of script code that do something. SystemScripter comes with tons of them and allows to select and insert those code snippets. Next, the parts of the script code that you should adjust to suite your needs are automatically highlighted. It is really easy to insert, customize and use snippet code.

And even better: once you feel confident, you can add your own snippets! This way, your snippet library will constantly grow. And since all snippets are stored in Visual Studio-compliant XML, you can even share them with collegues or the community in the Internet.

Example 2 Writing Script With Zero Knowledge - the Templates in action!
You know how it is. Your boss wants you to create user accounts. Too many to do it by hand or your afternoon is wasted. Since you're not (yet) a script expert, you don't know how to create user accounts by script.

This is why you press F12. SystemScripter opens the snippet menu, and you can easily select the snippet you need.

Once the snippet is inserted, the editor highlights all the important parts that should be customized. In a matter of minutes, your script is done.



Combined with other snippets, your final script may even read in excel sheets or lists with user names and turn them into fully functional user accounts. It's not only effective, it's a heck of a lot of fun as well!
