Show HN: A Platform to Practice AWS+Terraform (cloudercoder.com)
7 points by redocr 12 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments
I built this because I like learning infrastructure with Terraform. Things like provisioning an EC2 instance with SSH may look simple on the console since it's just checking a checkbox, but in Terraform, this requires users knowing a lot more concepts, which I see as an alternative way for hands-on learning.

There are currently 54 questions regarding AWS+Terraform on the platform. No AWS accounts are required from users.

I'd appreciate your feedback!




I was asked why users couldn't submit their solutions. To submit your solution, you need to be on a Desktop (min-width: 768px) device. Otherwise, the UI is too cramped for it to be usable.


Very cool project. But with a year or two of experience + GPT, Terraform is dated...


Thanks! Yeah GPT does help a lot for people who wants to learn Terraform/DevOps in general, but I think having the ability to verify the solution makes the learning experience more interactive, which is one of the goals of this project.

Terraform is dated but OpenTofu is its successor? People probably won't be moving away from IaC anytime soon?
