My first question reading the article was "wth is vagrant?". I use Docker to containerize projects all the time.

Docker is infinitely better on linux. There is a lot of merit to the idea that if you're building for linux servers, build in a linux environment. So much life-force is wasted in trying to make Docker on another OS behave like linux. It is ironically, easier to run Docker, an linux inside something like a Virtual box an enjoy near native experience.
