Hi everyone!

I have some newbie questions in the best way of using several vagrant 
boxes, destroying them, and then spinning them up again.

I am a web developer and I use scotchbox for my local enviroment. I create 
a new box downloading scotchbox and creating a new local domain for the IP 
the project uses, BUT when I'm done with the project: what is the best way 
to free resources without loosing data and not keeping garbage that I won't 
use anymore?

Is it ok to make a copy of the database, destroy the box, move the project 
files and database to a dropbox folder for storage (for example), and if 
some day I need to work on this project again just do a 'vagrant up', 
reimport the database, and copy files back again?

Another way would be to move the entire project folder (with the .vagrant) 
to the dropbox folder for storage without destroying anytihing and when 
needed again just copy it back... but I assume that I am not releasing the 
resources that the vritual machine is using, as I am not destroying it and 
also some kind of problems could be caused... Am I right? What are your 
workflows in this topic?

Thanks!!
