Laravel Homestead

https://laravel.com/docs/4.2/homestead
Laravel Homestead is an official, pre-packaged Vagrant "box" that provides you a wonderful development environment without requiring you to install PHP, HHVM, a web server, and any other server software on your local machine. No more worrying about messing up your operating system! Vagrant boxes are completely disposable. If something goes wrong, you can destroy and re-create the box in minutes!
Homestead runs on any Windows, Mac, or Linux system, and includes the Nginx web server, PHP 5.6, MySQL, Postgres, Redis, Memcached etc

I'm going to ask a question where I don't even fully understand what I'm saying.
Is this kinda like a prebuilt LAMP VM?

@Dashrender yeah I think it's to make dev environments identical for the whole team and make them easy and quick to build and destroy

You mean it's not a prefab, disposable housing solution for the homeless? (what else would you think when you heard "vagrant box"?)
