Yeah I understand the difference between the two but I was wondering why people prefer Vagrant over Docker for development environments.

- mitchty 9y agoFor me, because docker doesn't do jack to help with developing in the kernel.
- dominotw 9y agoI think this is one of the edge cases where vagrant is useful over docker. Most ppl here don't do kernel dev though.
- pizza234 9y agoAt my company we need to have virtual machines as close as possible (software wise) to our production environment, including the kernel version.
- dasil003 9y agoIf I'm deploying to VMs then I prefer Vagrant, if I'm deploying containers then I prefer Docker. It's all about dev/prod parity, at least at the 30,000' view, once you get into specific use cases there may be reason to mix and match.
- stephenr 9y agoBecause we want a full VM, to very closely mimic production.
