> Terraform is a source-available tool that turns cloud and service APIs into declarative configuration files, letting teams version, review and reuse infrastructure as code and apply changes through execution plans.

## Useful for

- Describe existing and new cloud resources as versioned configuration files
- Generate an execution plan to review infrastructure changes before applying them
- Automate complex changesets across non-dependent resources in parallel

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-02 (UTC), 00:07–23:12: 50346 → 50118 stars (-228). This is the change over that interval.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
