As part of this workshop, you will be using HashiCorp Terraform and Amazon Web Services.

For instructions on how to install Terraform. please see our Learn Guide.

On that page, you will find instructions for macOS (using brew), Windows (using choco) as well as a manual installation path.

This section is a collection of links that will help you make the most of today's session.

Before plan and apply, always clean up your code:

• use terraform fmt to rewrite Terraform configuration files to a canonical format and style.
• use terraform validate to validate the configuration syntax and internal consistency
• use pre-commit to run more checks
  • community member @antonbabenko built and maintains pre-commit-terraform

• use modules as building blocks
• module documentation: terraform.io/docs/configuration/modules.html
