Vagrant

THANKSGIVING DAY. Let us all give humble, hearty, and

sincere thanks now, but the turkeys. In the island of Fiji

they do not use turkeys; they use plumbers. It does not

become you and me to sneer at Fiji.

Vagrant (бродяга) — инструмент для создания и развертывания виртуальных машин. Но не просто машин, а сконфигурированных и настроенных согласно некоему конфигу — vagrant file.

Once you or someone else creates a single Vagrantfile, you just need to vagrant up and everything is installed and configured for you to work. Other members of your team create their development environments from the same configuration, so whether you're working on Linux, Mac OS X, or Windows, all your team members are running code in the same environment, against the same dependencies, all configured the same way. Say goodbye to "works on my machine" bugs.

Полезняшка, однозначно.
