* website: v0.15 upgrade guide for sensitive resource attributes Our earlier draft of this guide didn't include a section about the stabilization of the "provider_sensitive_attrs" language experiment. This new section aims to address the situation where a module might previously have been returning a sensitive value without having marked it as such, and thus that module will begin returning an error after upgrading to Terraform v0.15. As part of that, I also reviewed the existing documentation about these features and made some edits aiming to make these four different sections work well together if users refer to them all at once, as they are likely to do if they follow the new links from the upgrade guide. I aimed to retain all of the content we had before, but some of it is now in a new location. In particular, I moved the discussion about the v0.14 language experiment into the upgrade guide, because it seems like a topic only really relevant to those upgrading from an earlier version and not something folks need to know about if they are using Terraform for the first time in v0.15 or later. * minor fixups Co-authored-by: Kristin Laemmert <mildwonkey@users.noreply.github.com> |

Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions.
The key features of Terraform are:
-
Infrastructure as Code: Infrastructure is described using a high-level configuration syntax. This allows a blueprint of your datacenter to be versioned and treated as you would any other code. Additionally, infrastructure can be shared and re-used.
-
Execution Plans: Terraform has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform will do when you call apply. This lets you avoid any surprises when Terraform manipulates infrastructure.
-
Resource Graph: Terraform builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources. Because of this, Terraform builds infrastructure as efficiently as possible, and operators get insight into dependencies in their infrastructure.
-
Change Automation: Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction. With the previously mentioned execution plan and resource graph, you know exactly what Terraform will change and in what order, avoiding many possible human errors.
For more information, see the introduction section of the Terraform website.
Getting Started & Documentation
Documentation is available on the Terraform website:
If you're new to Terraform and want to get started creating infrastructure, please check out our Getting Started guides on HashiCorp's learning platform. There are also additional guides to continue your learning.
Show off your Terraform knowledge by passing a certification exam. Visit the certification page for information about exams and find study materials on HashiCorp's learning platform.
Developing Terraform
This repository contains only Terraform core, which includes the command line interface and the main graph engine. Providers are implemented as plugins, and Terraform can automatically download providers that are published on the Terraform Registry. HashiCorp develops some providers, and others are developed by other organizations. For more information, see Extending Terraform.
