Most people who do windows forms in powershell design them in XML.

If you're interested in a GUI editor, this is the tool people are using these days:

It's a paid product, but comparatively cheaper than VB6 was.

Oof. I hate powershell studio. It weirdly splits up the files and none of them are .ps1 and they obliterate all good standards and practices forcing you to leave arbitrary code in the project so that theres no way to know what pieces fit with what. Youd sh*t yourself if you saw how the Sapien community handles not blocking the rendering thread that their GUI forms run on (so it doesnt literally freeze up and crash).
