About this Presentation
Vagrant is “virtualized development made easy.” If you’re looking to lower development setup time, minimize manual configuration and setup and eliminate the “it works on my machine” excuse, Vagrant is for you.
Vagrant leverages Oracle’s VirtualBox to create virtual machines that are configured via Puppet or Chef. You can use it to create reproducible and stable environments to deploy and test your application without hassle. Don’t hack up your development workstation to try and approximate your deployment config - use Vagrant to mimic the real thing.
