Some people may not realize there are a lot of Linux commands that work within PowerShell. I thought I would list some of them for people to try. In the future I will do a write up on each one individually. For now, let's just get familiar with them.

• cat - Lists contents of files to the terminal window.
• cd - Change directory
• clear - Clear the terminal window.
• cp - Copy file
• curl - Retrieves information and files from URLs or internet addresses.
• date - Shows current date
• diff - Compares two text files and shows differences between them.
• echo - Prints a string of text in the terminal window.
• exit - Exit your current shell.
• finger - Shows information on user.
• find - Search for files.
• history - Brief list of the last few commands you have used.
• kill - Kill a running process.
• ls - List the files and folders in the current directory.
• man - Show man pages.
• mkdir - Create a directory
• mv - Move a file or directory.
• ping - Tool to help verify network connectivity.
• ps - List running processes.
• pwd - Prints current working directory to the terminal.
• rm - Remove a file.
• rmdir - Remove a directory.
• ssh - Connect to a remote computer.
• tar - Create archives.
• wget - Downloads files served with HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP over a network.
• whoami - Find out who you are logged in as.

Please play around with these in your terminal. Let me know if there are any I may have missed and I can add them.
