I'm somewhat out of my depth here, but isn't Vagrant suitable for this purpose?
- ghuntley 8y agoWatch https://youtu.be/tl9I-R83lKo https://youtu.be/tl9I-R83lKo for a quick overview. It me in the video btw.
- sdwisely 8y agoGreat run-through, thank you!
- zymhan 8y agoNo no no. Vagrant is for spinning up dev environment VMs with a virtualization tool like VirtualBox.
- tinco 8y agoYou usually use Vagrant to provision a machine with a suitable image and then use some other tech to setup your environment on that image. Common choices are Chef, Puppet or Salt, last time I checked. You can use NixOS to replace both the OS image and the configuration tech.
