- Vagrant Triggers plugin is super useful https://github.com/emyl/vagrant-triggers

- I've found VMware Fusion as a provider worth the extra cost/disk space

Do you find vmware base box availability an issue? Is it just you or a team using VMware?

Creating your own base boxes is actually pretty straight forward since Packer.

Maintaining them is admittedly a bit of a time sink though.

Haha I'm aware. I'm the maintainer for https://app.vagrantup.com/koalephant - I was curious about vmware+Vagrant usage, we don't support it right now but I'm considering adding it.

There's between two and five of us, and we use the puphpet/ubuntu1604-x64 box.

Also here's a template for an initial LEMP WP setup
