Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.

Terraform is a popular Infrastructure as Code tool that allows you to automate and manage your infrastructure by defining how it should be in an easy-to-read configuration file.
It can be time-consuming to create and manage the infrastructure that drives your software applications as they grow and become larger. Also, what about ongoing updates and releases of new features? Luckily, there is a solution to this problem in the form of a tool designed by Hashicorp called Terraform. This allows us to define our infrastructure in a central configuration file without having to create it on every provider platform we use.
To get started, check that you have Terraform installed and configured on your computer. It is also quite handy to install the Terraform VS Code extension for Terraform if you’re using the VS Code Editor to follow along.
