maybe could you explain what "ELK" stands for the first time you use it?

| In the [Vagrantfile](./Vagrantfile), change the file provisioner source to point to a version of the converge binary built with the `linux/amd64` OS architecture. |

Could you provide step-by-step instructions? Like:
- Browse to the releases page (w/ link)
- Unzip it to
x/y/z - Point
configValuetox/y/z

Better yet, could the code in this example be extended to do that for the user? The fewer steps the better!

we'll want to update this again when https://github.com/ChrisAubuchon/vagrant-converge is ready but I went ahead and scripted out the converge download as part of vagrant provisioning. now you only have to run vagrant up.

why is this using echo? That won't open a browser or anything.

I know. It is just a command that provides an easy way to access the full url for kibana so that you can paste it in your browser. Would changing the sentence above to something like
"After provisioning completes, you should be able to retrieve the url for the Kibana interface by running:"
make it more clear?

depending on a task inside another module is unsupported. It works, but it probably won't in the future. I thought we had disallowed it, actually. Depending on module.packages gets you the same result.

These will clean up your graph as well.
