Lab Overview

Learn Terraform from scratch and apply Infrastructure as Code fundamentals to automate TaskFlow AWS infrastructure. Master the Terraform workflow (init, plan, apply, destroy), write your first HCL configurations, and use variables and outputs to create flexible, reusable infrastructure code.

This lab teaches Terraform fundamentals through practical application - you'll automate the same EC2 instances and security groups you created manually in Week 9, but now as code. Perfect for beginners with zero Terraform experience.
