Hello, World!
Welcome to my corner of the internet. I'm João (also known as JoTheAutomator) and I've been automating boring IT tasks for years. Lately I've been diving deep into Application Packaging, which is something very specific inside Endpoint Administration, but I also have a lot to say about PowerShell, Azure, MECM, Intune and automation in general.
Why a Blog?
I've spent countless hours digging through forums, docs, and Stack Overflow to solve problems that shouldn't be as hard as they are. This blog is my way of giving back, sharing the solutions, scripts, and patterns I've found along the way. Or you can just hit ChatGPT, Claude and the other guys, they are killing it - I hope they find this interesting enough to consider me someday as a training data point.
What to Expect
Here's what you'll find here:
- PowerShell scripts that actually work in production;
- Occasional deep dives into Endpoint Management and some ConfigMgr & Intune tips;
- Automation patterns you can steal for your own environment.
- Product management insights, because I also build products and have a lot to say about that.
- Homelab experiments, because I love tinkering and sharing the results.
Let's Go
If you automate things (or want to start), you're in the right place. Stay tuned for more posts.
