📋 Structure

• main.tf - primary entrypoint;
• variables.tf - declarations for variables;
• outputs.tf - declarations for outputs;
• providers.tf - list required providers, versions and configurations;
• terraform.tfvars - derived from terraform.tfvars.example, contains custom values for variables. This file should not be commited to the repository.

✒ Style Conventions

In order to ensure consistency across your project, follow some conventions:

• Use 2 spaces for indentation;
• Align the equal signs inside a block;
• Use empty lines to separate blocks;
• Use only lowercase letters, digits and underscores (_) in block identifiers. Do not use hyphens (-).

Except for block identifiers, all other conventions are automatically applied by running terraform fmt command.
