# Windows 11 ARM64 Vagrant Box

The `apter-tech/windows-11-arm64` Vagrant box provides a pre-configured **Windows 11 ARM64 environment** with **auto-login enabled**. It is based on the `pipegz/Windows11ARM` box and optimized for VMware Desktop. This box is designed for streamlined workflows on ARM-based platforms such as Apple Silicon.

## Features

- **Base Box**: Built on the reliable `pipegz/Windows11ARM` base box.
- **Auto Login**: Automatically logs in as the `vagrant` user for seamless access.
- **VMware Desktop Support**: Fully configured for VMware Desktop with `vmxnet3` networking for better performance.
- **Pre-configured**: Comes with a Vagrantfile for quick setup.

## Requirements

```bash
vagrant init apter-tech/windows-11-arm64 --box-version 1.0.0

```

This will:
