Streamlining development VM management

As developers, we constantly seek ways to automate repetitive tasks, such as configuring development environments on our workstations. In the past, we discussed easy and rapid solutions for deploying Kubernetes clusters. This time, I found a similar challenge but with hardware virtualization. What happens when we need to use a virtual machine instead of a container? The process becomes more tedious. We find ourselves downloading ISO installation images, installing the operating system, and configuring it manually.
