    Development Software


VirtualBox - Virtualization software for running local operating systems within your computer.  This allows us have a full version of linux within our computers that better match how a live webserver works.
Vagrant - A tool for provisioning (creating) virtual machines.
VVV - A pre-built, community-supported Vagrant configuration for WordPress development.
Git - Version control system for managing code during development.  Easily allows for tracking changes, and merging new code into an existing project.
SourceTree - A GUI available on Windows and Mac for managing Git projects.  This makes Git much easier to use, as we won't have to learn the command line interface.
Github.com - A website that provides free Git repositories for both open source and private projects.
SASS - (SCSS) A CSS preprocessing implementation that allows us to write much less CSS for a project. This basically makes CSS into a simple programming language.
