Clone WordPress Sites With Varying Vagrant Vagrants

A few weeks ago a friend mentioned to me that he'd like to step up his game when it comes to web development, and asked me about my workflow, and what software I use in the process of my craft. The first thing I'm going to talk about is Vagrant; specifically Varying Vagrant Vagrants.

Vagrant is a piece of software designed to "Create and configure lightweight, reproducible, and portable development environments." It often uses VirtualBox as it's backend, but could also use VMWare or other virtual machines.

That's a lot of technical jibber jabber as my wife likes to call it. In plainer english, Vagrant lets you write recipes for virtual machines. "I'd like Ubuntu Linux with a classic Apache, PHP, MySQL setup please” or "I'd like CentOS with all the software to run a Ruby on Rails environment”.
