About:
Vagrant is a command-line tool for building and managing virtual machine environments. It simplifies the setup of reproducible development environments by providing a consistent workflow. This eliminates the 'it works on my machine' problem across teams.
Key Features:
  • Declarative environment configuration via Vagrantfile
  • Support for multiple providers (VirtualBox, Docker, VMware)
  • Automated provisioning with shell scripts, Chef, or Puppet
  • Synced folders for seamless code editing between host and guest
Use Cases:
  • Creating isolated, reproducible development environments
  • Testing infrastructure configurations locally
  • Running multi-machine stacks for complex applications
Alternatives:
  • Docker – Lighter-weight containers vs full VMs; Vagrant can use Docker as a provider
  • Multipass – Ubuntu-focused VMs; simpler setup but less provider flexibility
