Vagrant needs you!
|
||||
|
||||
We're trying to build something great to change the way developers work.
|
||||
But we're just two guys, and we know there is a lot of growing up we have
|
||||
to do! If you've got an idea, a bug report, or just want to dig in and hack
|
||||
on Vagrant, you are welcome to!
|
||||
|
||||
Visit [Vagrant on GitHub](http://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant) to report any
|
||||
issues or to grab the code to begin hacking.

|

### Why should I use Vagrant? What I'm doing now works just fine.
|
||||
|
||||
One could say that web development was working just fine prior to
|
||||
the rise of MVC and opinionated development frameworks and they would
|
||||
be speaking the truth as well. Vagrant is not trying to change the way
|
||||
you work because its wrong, per se, but move web development forward
|
||||
by providing isolated environments which are easy to build, portable,
|
||||
and lightweight.
|
||||
|
||||
### Vagrant would be so much better if it had feature `X`!
|
||||
|
||||
Vagrant is open source and released under a permissive [license](/license.html),
|
||||
so feel free to modify it and add the feature! Open up a ticket
|
||||
explaining why the feature adds value to Vagrant with a link to the
|
||||
patch you'd like us to merge in and we probably will. If you aren't comfortable
|
||||
adding the feature yourself, still make a ticket and if its compelling
|
||||
enough, someone will add it in for you.
|
||||
|
||||
### Don't virtual machines slow down your main development machine?
|
||||
|
||||
The short answer: no. Longer answer: Given a big enough and busy enough virtual machine... perhaps. But through real-world
|
||||
usage, we've found that most virtual machines are small, using 256 to 500 MB or RAM,
|
||||
and typically are running mostly idle processes. Its not as if the virtual machines
|
||||
are running 3D games (although I suppose you could try it)!
|
||||
|
||||
### Virtual machines take up way too much hard drive space!
|
||||
|
||||
An average virtual machine that Vagrant provisions is about 500 MB of physical
|
||||
disk space total (although the virtual drive had a capacity
|
||||
of 40 GB). Sure, if you have 10 vagrant projects with their virtual environments built,
|
||||
this is 5 GB, but its still only 5 GB. And don't forget that Vagrant allows you to complete
|
||||
tear down the environment and rebuild it in a flash, so you shouldn't ever even need all
|
||||
those environments built at the same time. Just run `vagrant up` when you need a virtual
|
||||
machine and disk space will be kept low.
