    Since I'm keeping this course under two hours to keep it free on Udemy (their rules), I decided that the easiest way to instruct everyone to install Terraform on their system of choice is to just provide Hashicorp Learn documentation. They explain very well and there's no sense in me recording it again, so check it out and reach out if you have any questions!


Requirements

  • Understanding of AWS core services such as VPC and EC2
  • Basic Bash or Powershell experience is helpful, but not required
  • Familiarity with VScode is useful
