Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Terraform Tips & Tricks: Managing Large-Scale Azure Resource Imports
Aztfy is a tool developed by Microsoft that allows you to bulk import resources, it has some configuration so you can specify what to import, the names to import and so on. After spending some time with the tool, I quickly realized it may be a no-go. The problem I had with this tool is twofold:
-
Azure Terrafy: Import and Manage Existing Azure Resources with Terraform
Azure Terrafy is a tool that makes it easy to import your existing Azure resources into Terraform modules. Suppose you're an Azure user looking to manage your infrastructure with the power of Terraform. In that case, Azure Terrafy can save you time and effort by automating the process of incorporating your existing resources into your Terraform configuration. This is especially useful for those who have a "brownfield" environment, where their infrastructure already has a number of existing resources that need to be brought under the management of Terraform. It can save you a lot of time and effort. Without Terrafy, you would need to manually create a Terraform configuration file for each resource you want to manage. This can be tedious and error-prone, especially if you have many resources.

terraforming existing infra
If that existing infrastructure happens to be in Azure, look into aztfy, it's helped me build some structures to replace first-generation hand-deployed resources.

How do I use TF only for new stuff in Azure (leave stuff, that was created in the portal before, like it was)?
https://github.com/Azure/aztfy I've done this, as the guy above says it's all flat but perfectly readable.

OpenTofu 1.7.0 is out with State Encryption, Dynamic Provider-defined Functions
None of these are a replacement of Terraform Cloud (recently rebranded to HCP Terraform). For example, when you create a PR, it could affect multiple workspaces. The new experimental version of TFC/TFE (I refuse to call it HCP!) implements Stacks, which is something like a workflow, and links one workspace output to other workspace inputs. None of the open-source solutions, including the paid Digger [0], support this - only the paid one, such as Spacelift [1] (which is the closest to TFC if you ask me). Having a monorepo of Terraform is a common design pattern, so, if I change an embedded module, it could trigger changes it many workspaces. As far as I know, Atlantis [2] can't really help in this case.
By the way, the reason I singled-out Spacelift is due to its quality, and the great Terraform provider it has. Scalr [3], for example, has a really low-quality Terraform provider. I extensively use the hashicorp/tfe provider to manage TFC itself.

Terramate meets Atlantis 🚀
Atlantis is a pull request automation tool that works well with plain Terraform right away. But what if we're already using Terramate to generate Terraform code?

Stop Squinting at IaC Templates: Preview Diffs for Argo CD, Terraform, and more!
For example, Atlantisgo for Terraform, Zapier’s Kubechecks for Argo CD, Quizlet’s GitHub action all do something similar to this. But a generic, extensible tool for IaC providers doesn’t seem to exist. Additionally, many of them require exposing your Kubernetes cluster or other infrastructure to third-party access, webhooks, etc.

Self-service infrastructure as code
Our first attempt was to introduce other engineering teams to Terraform - the Platform team was already using it extensively with Terragrunt, and using Atlantis to automate plan and apply operations in a Git flow to ensure infrastructure was consistent. We'd written modules, with documentation, and an engineer would simply need to raise a PR to use the module and provide the right values, and Atlantis (once the PR was approved by Platform) would go ahead and set it up for them.

Terraform Cloud Pricing Changes Sticker Shock
We use Atlantis [0] for CI/CD automation of Terraform pull requests to a centralized repository. It's pretty good too, especially for a self-hosted solution. I can't see how Terraform Cloud's costs would be justifiable for us without a custom contract.
