# Vagrant AWS Example Box Vagrant providers each require a custom provider-specific box format. This folder shows the example contents of a box for the `aws` provider. To turn this into a box: ``` $ tar cvzf aws.box ./metadata.json ./Vagrantfile ``` This box works by using Vagrant's built-in Vagrantfile merging to setup defaults for AWS. These defaults can easily be overwritten by higher-level Vagrantfiles (such as project root Vagrantfiles).
