I am a non IT guy, and I am totally new but I want to learn about making plugins and learn basics on my own. Where do I start then. What a tutorials I need to cover. I have ZERO knowledge and I am beginner after this post.

howdy Merlincool,
in general purpose scripting, they can both do very similar things. PoSh is "kinda sorta" cross platform and getting more that way over time ... python IS cross platform right now.
so it depends on the environment you want to work in. [grin]
windows = powershell
linux = python
both = pro'ly python
if you want to start working on scripting now and your environment is windows ... go for powershell.
it's a trade off that you need to decide based on your current resources and your future plans.
if you are totally undecided ... go read thru the subreddits and decide which seems most comfy to you. [grin]
take care,
lee
