Vagrant comes with support out of the box for using Docker as a provider. This allows for your development environments to be backed by Docker containers rather than virtual machines. Additionally, it provides for a good workflow for developing Dockerfiles.
Warning: Docker knowledge assumed. We assume that
you know what Docker is and that you are comfortable with the basics
of Docker. If not, we recommend starting with another provider such
as VirtualBox.
Use the navigation to the left to find a specific Docker topic to read more about.
