./pwsm A persistent windows service manager

While working on one of our projects I ran into a common frustration — unlike Linux with systemd, Windows has no simple way to run arbitrary scripts or executables as persistent services. Tools like NSSM exist, but I wanted to build something of my own.

Introducing pwsm (Persistent Windows Service Manager)

Similar to systemd on Linux, pwsm lets you run any script or executable as a Windows service that persists across reboots — configured with a simple YAML file.

And it's completely open-source

Looking forward to suggestions, questions and ideas
