  • Vagrant: a tool for managing and configuring Virtual Machines. 
  • VirtualBox: free virtual machine software that we use for developing our firmware code. UPDATE: virtual box 5.2.36 doesn't work. Install 5.2.34 instead. 
  • VirtualBox Extension Pack: it's located at the same download page as virtual box.
  • Git: make sure to go on Github and create an account.
Info

If you are running Windows or Linux: Be sure to install Virtual Box 5.2.34 or any version less than 5.2.34. Vagrant does not work with Virtual Box 6.x

If you are running MacOs (Big Sur or later), you will need to download a later newer version, as 5.2.34 is not compatible with Big Sur. 

  1. Download the latest distro of Vagrant here
  2. Download the latest version of Virtualbox. You need both the main application and the "Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack", available here. Make sure the versions are the same
  3. Install Virtualbox via the dmg file. Once this is done, double click on the extension pack and follow the instructions to install.
