Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What is Terraform HCL?

HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language) is the configuration language used by Terraform to define infrastructure as code. It's a human-readable language designed for creating and managing cloud resources.

Does this tool validate Terraform syntax?

Yes, the tool performs basic syntax validation to ensure your code follows HCL structure rules. It checks for proper block definitions, braces, and quotes, and will display errors if the syntax is invalid.

Can I format large Terraform configurations?

Yes, the tool can handle reasonably large configurations. However, for extremely large files (over 10,000 lines), performance may be affected as processing happens in the browser.

What formatting options are available?

You can choose between 2-space or 4-space indentation, and optionally enable alignment of equals signs within blocks for better visual consistency.

Is my code sent to a server?

No, all processing happens entirely in your browser. Your Terraform code never leaves your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
