Is the title catchy enough? :)
Wouldn't it be nice to offer a vagrant or vagga(
https://github.com/tailhook/vagga ) configuration, to make the life of the developer easy?
I guess vagrant is more "portable"(in the sense that it is not Linux only). I personally prefer vagga since it's simple and fast to run + doesn't need root rights after it is installed.
If you are interested, I can write a vagga configuration. Would you be willing to accept a contribution for this?(There could be 1 script for set-up and/or 1 vagga.yaml file).
