Status of Vagrant-Go (github.com/hashicorp)

As far as I know, vagrant is the only decent alternative to locally spin up a bunch of VM machines in a programmatic way (and without paying a dollar). Very useful to replicate cloud environments locally.

Do you know of any other open source alternative? I know about UTM and qemu, but the former is more oriented to VM with GUIS and you have to spin up machines in a very manual way. The latter is great, but not as easy as use as vagrant I would say.

Also, docker does not provide the same features (e.g., it gets tricky if you want to run `minikube` inside docker, or docker within docker, etc.)
