I wasted a lot of weekends getting Docker or Vagrant to work so the rest of my team could follow what I was doing. After a few weeks of Google and outdated documentation, I decided to try out LXC and throw away all the other fancy tools. I went into each container and ran my provisioning script(s), updating them for each trick I stumble upon. My sanity is back now, and my team will clone the LXC repos for their development environment.
After a few nights of trying to get Docker to run on my work laptop, I figured there was an issue with Windows security as the VM would be created but Docker would fail to initialise. One of my colleagues said a CentOS worked for him. By then I had dumped Docker for Vagrant; which also had the same issues. I was now trying to figure out how to run Vagrant on Hyper-V as Vbox was acting up. I grew some grey hair those weekends. I'd rather be conservative with my time; use what works and wait for some of these tools to mature.
