With nearly 20 years of programming and software development experience, I started out teaching myself programming while in High School. I put myself through college working for a local Internet Service Provider as a programmer. Before finishing college, I developed and sold an award winning website to a Dot-Com start-up. After college, I have worked at several companies ranging from...
Awesome course. Learned a lot about Vagrant. The learning journey continues. Thanks.
this is really great. Great content and presentation.
Good for beginner on Vagrant, learn a lot and superd!!
Straight to the point, What is fundamental and basics overview. tks
I would suggest to consider showing the usage of Ansible playbooks within Vagrant since it is simple to use and for sure will attract even more students to this course.
This is supposed to be a training for vagrant, but half the training (1h) is just explaining how to install things that any dev would be able to do easily. One of the most interesting part of vagrant (the provisioning) is just glossed over in 4 minutes.
good content
I think would be good to start a project using vagrant, even if it is something simple, to see a little more detail.
Good content! I would be better if this course is updated to the latest year versions.
Old courses (almost 6 years old). Explain too many things on Git, this is a Vagrant course, not a Git nor Github, neither a text editor course.
Not worth the price.
