Scotch Box is a preconfigured Vagrant box providing a full LAMP/LEMP stack (Ubuntu, PHP, MySQL, Apache/NGINX) for local web development. It lets developers spin up a ready-to-use PHP development environment with a single 'vagrant up' command.

Use cases

set up a local PHP development environment quickly
run a LAMP stack locally without installing PHP and MySQL on my machine
spin up a preconfigured Vagrant box for Laravel development
develop WordPress sites in an isolated local VM
get a consistent dev environment across a team with Vagrant

When to choose

you need a dead-simple, preconfigured local LAMP/LEMP environment via Vagrant
you want a consistent PHP/MySQL dev setup across Linux, macOS, and Windows
you're working on legacy PHP projects matching its Ubuntu 16.04 / PHP 7 stack

When to avoid

you need current PHP/Ubuntu versions or active maintenance (last release 2018)
you prefer Docker-based local development
you need a production hosting environment rather than a dev box
