 ## 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
+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`.
-    yo aspnetcore-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+For a more detailed (albeit somewhat outdated) walkthrough, see [getting started with the `aspnetcore-spa`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.

- * Go to whatever sample or template you want to run (for example, `cd templates/AngularSpa`)
- * Restore NPM dependencies (run `npm install`)
- * If the sample/template you're trying to run has a file called `webpack.config.vendor.js` at its root, run `webpack --config webpack.config.vendor.js`. It it has a file called `webpack.config.js`, run `webpack` (no args). You might need to install webpack first, by running `npm install -g webpack`.

+
+<#
+.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.
