        .EXAMPLE
        Create a new module named MyDscResources
        Create a new composite resource under that module named MyCompositeResource

        New-DscCompositeResource -ModuleName MyDscResources -ResourceName MyCompositeResource

        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]

    $DscResourcePath = "$ModulePath\DSCResources"

    # Create Directory Structure
    New-Item -Path @($ModulePath,$DscResourcePath,$ResourcePath) -ItemType Directory

    # Add Base Module Manifest
