I was very attracted to LXDock, which allowed you to provision LXD containers declaratively. But it is unmaintained, mangled host file permissions, and was not cross-platform. I had to go back to Vagrant, which was heavier, but perfectly cross-platform. I look forward to LXD as a Vagrant/Docker [Compose] alternative but Canonical seems to pay more attention to Kubernetes.
I feel too dumb to be a Docker [Compose] user. Also Vue build tool requires a terminal with full color, handle printed backspace characters and draw everything. So vagrant ssh it is.
