Mitch Canter

Mitch Canter is a digital strategist and WordPress developer from Franklin, TN. He’s excited to bring you “WordPress Development with Vagrant, VVV, and VV

The day I discovered Vagrant was the day that I changed the way I worked. I went from fighting with server setups and local development boxes to seamlessly creating sites that fit in with my own workflow. But Vagrant by itself, while good, won’t get you there alone.
That’s where VVV – a WordPress development environment – comes in. VVV comes pre-equipped with all of the tools, bells, and whistles needed to streamline your development environment.
