## What it is
A Vagrant provider plugin that manages DigitalOcean Droplets (virtual machines) directly from a Vagrantfile. It supports creating, destroying, powering on/off, and rebuilding Droplets, plus shell provisioning and SSH key setup.

## Use cases
- manage digitalocean droplets with vagrant
- provision cloud vms from a vagrantfile
- create and destroy droplets from the command line
- spin up test servers on digitalocean
- rebuild a droplet keeping the same ip address
- set up ssh keys for droplet authentication

## When to avoid
- you need full DigitalOcean API coverage beyond Droplet lifecycle operations
- you prefer Terraform or native cloud tooling for infrastructure as code
- your project no longer uses Vagrant
- you need actively developed features - the project is in maintenance mode with infrequent releases
