  • tflint

    A Pluggable Terraform Linter

  • TFLint: This is a Terraform linter that checks for errors and best practices in your Terraform code. TFLint helps to catch common mistakes, such as variable name clashes, missing required variables, or invalid resource arguments. It also checks for compliance with best practices, such as naming conventions and resource ordering. By using TFLint, you can catch errors early on, which helps to improve the quality of your Terraform code.

  • vscode-infracost

    See cost estimates for Terraform right in your editor💰📉

  • Infracost : Infracost is an open-source tool that allows users to see the cost of running their infrastructure, such as AWS resources, in near real-time. It uses the AWS Price List API to determine the costs of resources, and can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines to provide cost feedback during the development process. This allows developers to make informed decisions about their infrastructure and optimize costs. Additionally, Infracost can be used to create alerts based on cost thresholds, so you can be notified when your infrastructure costs exceed a certain amount. This can be especially useful for teams that operate on a tight budget or need to manage costs closely.

  • Terraform-docs: This tool generates documentation for your Terraform modules in various formats, such as Markdown, HTML, and JSON. Terraform-docs parses your Terraform code and extracts documentation from comments, variable and output descriptions, and input/output examples. The tool then generates a table of contents with links to the relevant documentation for each module, which makes it easy to understand the purpose and usage of each module.
