Sending async requests to APIs created with Polaris module in Powershell

Pode & Pode.Web - Powershell webserver and frontend toolset
Just thought I'd share this incredibly rich tool here, a powershell webserver + frontend toolset that let me spin up a table and form over the top of AD in like, 15 minutes.

Would I best to stick to just Powershell, or would learning C# not hurt?
Before reinventing the wheel (though good to learn!), consider Pode.Web which is a free open source product built on PowerShell that'll let you run scripts: https://github.com/Badgerati/Pode.Web

How to execute a powershell script from a webpage?
I would highly recommend Pode or Pode.Web. It is amazing and open source! You can secure it and create a login page and auth against AzureAD, AD, OAUTH, etc. To illustrate how cool this is they give an example on the Pode.Web github page to show the top 10 processes running in ~10 lines of powershell code and you have a fully running web app which you can convert into a windows service if you'd like. I highly recommend it!
