Gotta give a huge recommendation for Vagrant. Spinning up a VM is dead simple, and synchronisation between VMs is more or less automatic. Not sure how well it fares in Windows though.
- iaskwhy 13y agoI've been using it for a while and so far so good. The only problem I ran into was when I wanted to use ansible for the provisioning and since it was not really easy to do so I just went with chef instead. I really enjoy using Windows, so much that I'm dual booting it on my MacBook Air. I find it particularly odd when web developers make their sites and web apps look better in a Mac than on a Windows machine since (being generic here) most users will be using Windows. This is mostly noticeably in two areas: colors and type. Both look very different between Macs and Wins.
- baalexander 13y agoHeads up that since Vagrant 1.2, Ansible is supported by Vagrant without the need of a plugin. I created a gist similar to the one we're using at work to show how to use Ansible on Vagrant: https://gist.github.com/baalexander/5845528 https://gist.github.com/baalexander/5845528.
