Vagrant Cloud vs Flatpak: What are the differences?

Developers describe Vagrant Cloud as "Share, discover, and create Vagrant environments". Vagrant Cloud pairs with Vagrant to enable access, insight and collaboration across teams, as well as to bring exposure to community contributions and development environments. On the other hand, Flatpak is detailed as "Build and distribute applications on Linux". It is a next-generation technology for building and distributing desktop applications on Linux.

Vagrant Cloud and Flatpak belong to "Virtual Machine Platforms & Containers" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Vagrant Cloud are:

  • Vagrant Share: A single command to share your local Vagrant environment to anyone in the world
  • Box Distribution: Vagrant integration provides flexible versioning and support for private or community boxes
  • Discover Boxes: Start new projects faster using the right box. Find trusted and top-used community boxes

On the other hand, Flatpak provides the following key features:

  • Build for every distro - Create one app and distribute it to the entire Linux desktop market.
  • Stable platforms - Runtimes provide platforms of common libraries that you can depend on.
  • Consistent environments - Develop and test your application in an environment that’s identical to the one users have.
