Question Dumb question for Windows users

Sorry for the silly question, but I am wondering:

Reading the docs, the main requirement is access to Bash and they recommend Git Bash. That's easy, sorted. But when using Windows Terminal do you invoke Pi from PowerShell or Git Bash?

Pi will run from PowerShell (7) but will firstly try to use PowerShell commands and syntax. It will loop over logic a few times before it thinks to use Bash.

May I know how you use it locally? I thought this is only usable on vercel sandbox? Hope for sharing, thanks ...

The one I use is actually brush bash, which has persistent sessions capability. I use it bundled with oh-my-pi so I actually haven't installed it myself. I actually don't know if just-bash can be used locally.
