# Finding and Using Boxes
A primary use case of Vagrant Cloud by HashiCorp is to be able to easily find
boxes you can use with Vagrant that contain the technologies you need
for a Vagrant environment. We've made it extremely easy to do that:
1. Go to the [Discover page](https://app.vagrantup.com/boxes/search), and search for
any box you want.
1. Once you find a box, click its name to learn more about it.
1. When you're ready to use it, copy the name, such as "hashicorp/bionic64"
and initialize your Vagrant project with `vagrant init hashicorp/bionic64`.
Or, if you already have a Vagrant project created, modify the Vagrantfile
to use the box: `config.vm.box = "hashicorp/bionic64"`
