Runtime environment for RescueMe

RescueMe requires a runtime environment, typically a Linux, Windows or OSX server with the LAMP stack installed. Developers need this runtime environment to test and debug RescueMe. They could manually install a LAMP stack on their development machines, but this is time-consuming and error-prone. A better solution is to provide a ready-made runtime environment, which developers can run on a host of their choice. This is only possible using visualization software like VirtualBox. which is free, and runs both Windows, Linux, Macintosh.

Creating and configuring lightweight, reproducible, and portable development environments is a complex task in it self. Luckily, there is a free and available tool for this also, called Vagrant. Vagrant use base boxes containing all the data necessary to import and build a virtualized development environment.
