## What it is
A collection of example files, configurations, and environments for learning new infrastructure technologies like Vagrant, Docker, Ansible, Terraform, Pulumi, and Kubernetes. It is aimed at IT professionals who want hands-on reference material for coming up to speed with new tools and open source projects.

## Use cases
- learn vagrant by example
- example terraform configurations for aws
- ansible playbook examples to study
- hands-on docker and kubernetes learning material
- pulumi golang examples
- sample environments for consul and etcd
- learning infrastructure as code tools

## When to choose
- you are an IT professional learning a new infrastructure or DevOps technology
- you want small, working example configurations to study and adapt
- you need reference Vagrant environments or Terraform/Pulumi samples

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready, maintained infrastructure code
- you want a tool or library to integrate into your own project
- you need comprehensive tutorials rather than example files

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, infrastructure-as-code, container-runtime, configuration-management, cli
- domain: cloud-computing, infrastructure-as-code, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: cross-platform, cloud
- tags: vagrant-environments, terraform, pulumi, ansible, kubernetes, consul, etcd, openstack, lxc, kvm, packer, educational-examples, devops, containers, linux, vagrant, docker
