need some more topics in vagrant like network provisioning
Outdated centos version in Section 6-17. and when used Centos 7.x the command in the video is deprecate, mysql-server package is not there and was replaces with mariadb-server in Centos 7.x
I liked the coverage and execution!
One star deducted since the course is old, latest update of the course on the description page states 2015, the recommended book was published 2013...
I would love see a refresh, including latest version of vagrant, pros and cons of running vagrant inside WSL on Windows, and an example on how to use ansible for provisioning.
