Modules | Terraform Tutorial | #15

Modules group multiple resources together to create reusable code throughout your configurations. Modules can be thought of like packages in Python or modules in Javascirpt. A developer calling a module doesn't need to know about the underlying behavior and needs to only pass in the required data.

In this video tutorial I'll go over how and when to create modules along with some best practices.

Root and child modules
Output values from modules
Use output values as inputs to other modules or resources
Meta arguments like source and version
