Pin version variables to the ASP.NET Core 2.1.2 baseline

This reverts our previous policy of cascading versions on all servicing updates.
This moves variables into the 'pinned' section, and points them to the latest
stable release (versions that were used at the time of the 2.1.2 release).

 ## Creating new applications
 
-If you want to build a brand-new ASP.NET Core app that uses Angular / React / Knockout on the client, consider starting with the `aspnetcore-spa` generator. This lets you choose your client-side framework. It generates a starting point that includes applicable features such as Webpack dev middleware, server-side prerendering, and efficient production builds. It's much easier than configuring everything to work together manually!
+Prerequisites:
 
-To do this, install Yeoman and these generator templates:
+* [.NET Core 2.0](https://www.microsoft.com/net/core) (or later) SDK
+* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) version 6 (or later)
 
-    npm install -g yo generator-aspnetcore-spa
+With these prerequisites, you can immediately create new ASP.NET Core applications that use Angular, React, or React+Redux without having to install anything extra.
 
-Generate your new application starting point:
+### Option 1: Creating Angular/React/Redux applications from the command line (cross-platform)
 
-    cd some-empty-directory
-    yo aspnetcore-spa
+In an empty directory, run (for example) `dotnet new angular`. Other supported SPA frameworks include React and React+Redux. You can see the list of available SPA templates by running `dotnet new spa`.
 
 Once the generator has run and restored all the dependencies, you can start up your new ASP.NET Core SPA:
 
+    npm install
     dotnet run 
 
-For a more detailed walkthrough, see [getting started with the `aspnetcore-spa` generator](http://blog.stevensanderson.com/2016/05/02/angular2-react-knockout-apps-on-aspnet-core/).
+### Option 2: Creating Angular/React/Redux applications using Visual Studio 2017 Update 3 or later (Windows only)
+
+Using the `File`->`New Project` dialog, select *ASP.NET Core Web Application*. You will then be offered the option to create an application with Angular, React, or React+Redux. When the application is created, you can build and run it in the normal way.
+
+### More info and other SPA frameworks

+For a more detailed (albeit somewhat outdated) walkthrough, see [getting started with the `aspnetcore-spa` generator](http://blog.stevensanderson.com/2016/05/02/angular2-react-knockout-apps-on-aspnet-core/).
+
+If you want to build an ASP.NET Core application with Aurelia, Knockout, or Vue, you can use the `Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaTemplates` package. On the command line, run `dotnet new --install Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaTemplates`. Then you will be able to run `dotnet new aurelia` (or `dotnet new vue`, etc.) to create your new application.

-There was previously a `Microsoft.AspNetCore.ReactServices` but this is not currently needed - all applicable functionality is in `Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices`, because it's sufficiently general. We might add a new `Microsoft.AspNetCore.ReactServices` package in the future if new React-specific requirements emerge.
+There were previously other packages called  `Microsoft.AspNetCore.AngularServices` and `Microsoft.AspNetCore.ReactServices` but these are not currently needed - all applicable functionality is in `Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices`, because it's sufficiently general.
 
 If you want to build a helper library for some other SPA framework, you can do so by taking a dependency on `Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices` and wrapping its functionality in whatever way is most useful for your SPA framework.

+
+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+Executes KoreBuild commands.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+Downloads korebuild if required. Then executes the KoreBuild command. To see available commands, execute with `-Command help`.
+
+.PARAMETER Command
+The KoreBuild command to run.
+
+.PARAMETER Path
+The folder to build. Defaults to the folder containing this script.
+
+.PARAMETER Channel
+The channel of KoreBuild to download. Overrides the value from the config file.
+
+.PARAMETER DotNetHome
+The directory where .NET Core tools will be stored.
+
+.PARAMETER ToolsSource
+The base url where build tools can be downloaded. Overrides the value from the config file.
+
+.PARAMETER Update
+Updates KoreBuild to the latest version even if a lock file is present.
+
+.PARAMETER ConfigFile
+The path to the configuration file that stores values. Defaults to korebuild.json.
+
+.PARAMETER ToolsSourceSuffix
+The Suffix to append to the end of the ToolsSource. Useful for query strings in blob stores.
+
+.PARAMETER Arguments
+Arguments to be passed to the command
+
+.NOTES
+This function will create a file $PSScriptRoot/korebuild-lock.txt. This lock file can be committed to source, but does not have to be.
+When the lockfile is not present, KoreBuild will create one using latest available version from $Channel.
+
+The $ConfigFile is expected to be an JSON file. It is optional, and the configuration values in it are optional as well. Any options set
+in the file are overridden by command line parameters.
+
+.EXAMPLE
+Example config file:
+```json
+{
+  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aspnet/BuildTools/dev/tools/korebuild.schema.json",
+  "channel": "dev",
+  "toolsSource": "https://aspnetcore.blob.core.windows.net/buildtools"
+}

+NodeServices has a pluggable hosting/transport mechanism, because it is an abstraction over various possible ways to invoke Node.js from .NET. This allows more high-level facilities (e.g., for Angular prerendering) to be agnostic to the details of launching Node and communicating with it - those high-level facilities can just trust that *somehow* we can invoke code in Node for them.
 
 Using this abstraction, we could run Node inside the .NET process, in a separate process on the same machine, or even on a different machine altogether. At the time of writing, all the built-in hosting mechanisms work by launching Node as a separate process on the same machine as your .NET code.
