🚀 Terraform File Structure Management

🔍 Challenge: Managing complexity and ensuring efficient organization in Terraform projects, especially when dealing with a large number of resources across various aspects of infrastructure.

Solution: Grouping related resources in the same Terraform file enhances readability and maintainability of the infrastructure code, making it easier to manage dependencies and track changes.

👣 Steps to Success:

  1. Create your architecture in Brainboard to automatically generate Terraform code.
  2. Group resources by selecting them and clicking the "group resource in the same terraform file" button.
  3. Name your new file and save it to organize the selected resources.
  4. Your newly created file, along with standard ones like main.tf and variables.tf, will be neatly organized.
