PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit 2026

Chocolatey packaging is often learned by example—and sometimes by accident. When packaging code lives outside of source control, teams lose context, history, and confidence.

In this session, we’ll break down why Chocolatey packages should be treated as versioned code and how even simple Git usage dramatically improves reliability and maintainability. We’ll cover common beginner mistakes, a sensible repository structure, and how source control enables safer changes and easier automation. Whether you manage one package or many, this talk will help you build packaging workflows that won’t surprise future you.
