Ask HN: Why OSS projects do not provide a vagrantfile with their sources?
1 point by jnardiello on Dec 21, 2013 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
This would make contributing a LOT easier. It doesn't really require too much effort in providing a ready-to-use vagrantfile yet almost no project-owner is doing it. Why? Is there any downside?


Open source is about helping. If you see a project without one you want to use, contribute a vagrant file.


It would be useful if there were a few platforms available, or maybe a quick ansible playbook to set up your own dev box.
