Can someone explain in a few words what this is and who may be interested in this?
The name does not give any hints, also the discription tells me nothing:
"Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is an open source tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned."
This is a tool to manage your infrastructure (AWS/GCP/Azure/etc) as a code.
You write code, apply it, cloud providers spin up resources you declared, you commit your code (infrastructure) to git.
Now your infrastructure is version controlled, can be "easily" build from ground up in minutes, instead of someone doing 3124 things manually in the UI.
They do not mention "cloud" or "data center" once in their description. How is someone, who is not dealing with this kind of infrastructure supposed to know what they are talking about?

Is this a tool for property developers?
