Vagrant

Portable development environment manager

About Vagrant

A tool for building and managing portable virtual development environments, defining machines in a Vagrantfile so teams can reproduce the same setup locally across providers such as VirtualBox and VMware. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
