There are very valid reasons for why Docker moved away from VirtualBox and I think the same applies to Vagrant.
I wish Vagrant would work on bringing xhyve, Hyper-V and KVM to the same level of support as VirtualBox.
VirtualBox is the biggest source of issues in our Vagrant environment and there is no indication that's going to change.
- 0x4a42 10y agoDid you try Vagrant with VMWare Workstation?
- purephase 10y agoWe're using it with Fusion and, I believe, it's a big part of the issues we're experiencing. We have both Virtualbox and Fusion users that have the same issues.
- gtirloni 10y agoYes. I have a license for it and the Vagrant plugin but the experience is not great. Too many rough edges that I couldn't pitch that idea to the rest of the team. VMware would be ideal since it works on all three platforms we care about and has great performance, even with the added costs.
- stephenr 10y agoThere is also a Vagrant plugin for Veertu, which is based on Hypervisor.Framework, and it's free too. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be fully baked yet, I haven't had much success trying to use it, and there may not be many public base boxes available for it, as tools like Packer don't support it yet. Edit: Another option on macOS is Parallels. You need the "Pro" or "Business" licence to use with Vagrant, but it works reasonably well for my needs.
