A simplier example with less code

This example is a little simplier and probably faster because it:
 * does not create a new closure
 * does not call a closure
 * does not create a new variable (vm)
 * does not search for that variable in two scopes every time it needs to be used

 The code above defines a view-model object called `vm`. It is simply a javascript object that has a `init` function. This function initializes the `vm` object with three members: `list`, which is simply an array, `description`, which is an `m.prop` getter-setter function with an empty string as the initial value, and `add`, which is a method that adds a new Todo instance to `list` if an input description getter-setter is not an empty string.
 
 Later in this guide, we'll pass the `description` property as the parameter to this function. When we get there, I'll explain why we're passing description as an argument instead of simply using OOP-style member association.
