# VMware

|
|
[HashiCorp](https://www.hashicorp.com) develops an official
|
|
[VMware Fusion](https://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/overview.html)
|
|
and [VMware Workstation](https://www.vmware.com/products/workstation/)
|
|
[provider](/docs/providers/) for Vagrant. This provider allows
|
|
Vagrant to power VMware based machines and take advantage of the
|
|
improved stability and performance that VMware software offers.
|
|
|
|
The Vagrant VMware plugin is now open sourced under the MPL. The code
|
|
repository for the Vagrant VMware plugin is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant-vmware-desktop).
|
|
|
|
This provider is a drop-in replacement for VirtualBox. However, there are some
|
|
VMware-specific things such as box formats, configurations, etc. that are
|
|
documented here.
|
|
|
|
Please note that VMware Fusion and VMware Workstation are third-party products
|
|
that must be purchased and installed separately prior to using the provider.
