sfpowerscripts initially began life in the form of an Azure Pipelines Extension available through the Visual Studio Marketplace wrote by Azlam Abdulsalam as a personal project.

The project was then migrated to Accenture Open Source Program and a key component of Accenture DX@Scale initiative, a set of opinionated tool and practices for Enterprise Salesforce Development. The project was then revamped as a build system delivered as a CLI plugin
