Project Overview

Write Terraform scripts to automatically provision a VPC, subnets, EC2 instances, and an S3 bucket in AWS. Then, set up a GitHub Actions pipeline to apply this infrastructure when code is pushed.

Real World Use Case

A company needing to spin up identical staging and production environments automatically.

Steps to Build

1

Write Terraform configuration for AWS VPC and networking.

2

Define EC2 instance and Security Group resources.

3

Configure Terraform state to be stored remotely in an S3 bucket.

4

Write a GitHub Actions YAML file to run `terraform plan` on PRs.

5

Configure the action to run `terraform apply` on merge to main.
