Internal PowerShell DSL for VM template descriptions. A Hyper-V, or Azure, provider would actually instantiate from metadata (see bottom).
set-psdebug -strict
# bleh

$global:boxes = @{}

Example WInJS class declaration which works from within project, but not from within spec. Spec throws an exception "TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method 'print'" when I try to call print(). I notice this is also true when I try to call a method of ViewModel.LogIn.
<!-- snippet showing how referencing print.js -->
