+# Indempotent VM spawning config
+
+
+
+## Core concepts:
+
+- Fully reproducible and sharable cfengine testing environment
+- Should work for dev environment: support for package install and scripts
+- Atomic config: either all vms created or none. No in-between states.
+- Top-down run order
+- VMs bound to config that generated them. Should not manually interfer: VMs should not be destroyed manually and the config should not be modified while VMs are running.
+- Should provide abstraction of provider (aws, vagrant, static)
+
+
+## Example:
+
+```
+machines:
+  - ubuntu-vm:
+      provider: aws # if we want to force provider
+      count: 1 # ignore if provider is "static"
+
+      aws:
+        image: ubuntu-24
+
+      vagrant:
+        image: ubuntu/focal64
+        memory: 1024
+        cpus: 2
+
+      static: 
+        hosts: [ ubuntu@8.8.8.8, ubuntu@1.1.1.1 ]
+
+packages:
+  - cfengine-master:
+      package: cfengine
+      version: master
+      bootstrap: myhub # myhub count must be 1
+
+  - git-latest:
+      package: git
+      version: latest
+
+hubs:
+  - myhub:
+      from: ubuntu-vm
+      install: [ cfengine-master, git-latest ]
+      scripts: [ ./provision.sh ]
+
+clients:
+  - myclient: 
+      from: ubuntu-vm
+      install: [ cfengine-master ]
+```
