XML syntax - Once I have the function written I will add and submit pull request

Cool - this has been on my todo list since I first started this project :smile:

Suggestion:

I am presuming the Prefix is used to append "Win2016-" onto the beginning of the VHDx filename? If so, then perhaps make the a property of the for each template.

Also, how will the path to the Source ISO that will build these templates be provided?

Have you made a fork of this repo? You'll want to do that first so you can make changes to your fork and the submit the PR from that fork (or a branch of your fork most likely). Also, submit PR's to the Dev branch of this repo rather than master.

Ok, that makes sense for the prefix – I already have all the code to do this, just modifying to fit the format. Some of which is borrowed from your nanoserver creation script ☺

On mine I added the source iso into settings I’ll do that as soon as I figure out how to fork it

Like I said I’m still learning ☺
