Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing virtualized development environments.
Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing development environments.
By providing automated creation and provisioning of virtual machines using [Oracles VirtualBox](http://www.virtualbox.org),
Vagrant provides the tools to create and configure lightweight, reproducible, and portable
virtual environments. For more information, see the part of the getting started guide
on “[Why Vagrant?](http://vagrantup.com/v1/docs/getting-started/why.html)”
Vagrant provides the framework and configuration format to create and
manage complete portable development environments. These development
environments can live on your computer or in the cloud, and are portable
between Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
## Quick Start
First, make sure your development machine has [VirtualBox](http://www.virtualbox.org)
installed. After this, [download the appropriate Vagrant package for your OS](http://downloads.vagrantup.com) and install that. If you're not on Mac OS X or Windows, you'll need
installed. After this, [download and install the appropriate Vagrant package for your OS](http://downloads.vagrantup.com). If you're not on Mac OS X or Windows, you'll need
to add `/opt/vagrant/bin` to your `PATH`. After this, you're ready to go!
To build your first virtual environment:
vagrant init lucid32 http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box
vagrant init precise32 http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box
vagrant up
Note: The above `vagrant up` command will also trigger Vagrant to download the
`lucid32` box via the specified URL. Vagrant only does this if it detects that
`precise32` box via the specified URL. Vagrant only does this if it detects that
the box doesn't already exist on your system.
