Sitecore 9.3 SXA CLI - get item fields

In my blogpost Sitecore 9.3 - create a custom theme for SXA using SXA CLI I describe how to get started with SXA CLI. When configured as described in the blog post, and with the PowerShell remoting enabled, it is easy to build utility scripts for things like getting the fields of a Sitecore item. This is very useful in writing rendering variants using the new Scriban templating language. Add the following script PowerShell script to the root of your theme folder with the name get-itemfields.ps1, and with the command:

.\get-itemfields.ps1 -itemPath /sitecore/home/content

you will get an overview of all fields defined on the item:
