Show HN: Terragen.sh – proof of concept Terraform boilerplate generator

  • Hi all, I recently slapped together https://terragen.sh/ in a single sitting. Terragen.sh is a website where you can put make some decisions about your infrastructure needs, and generate the terraform that matches your configuration.

    It's an extremely narrow use-case right now as I put it together in about 4 hours, but it has a fully functioning extensible backend that uses versioned Go templates to store and render the terraform. Right now, the site generates terraform for the hello-world app for AWS AppRunner.

    In an effort to get early feedback, I decided to post the link even though the website is still extremely limited.

    Do you think there's a use case for a website like this? Maybe advanced configurations require payment to generate? Would you ever use a tool like this? Maybe if it also created best practices VPCs, database configurations, etc?

    But also, maybe there isn't much of a market for anything more advanced!

    Thanks for any and all feedback!
