Awesome As Code
A personal passion of mine is things as code, this is a small collection of things as code tools I have come across
Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
Terraform and Open Tofu
Terraform and OpenTofu are powerful Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools that enable teams to define, provision, and manage cloud infrastructure using declarative configuration files.
Using HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) or JSON, they provide a consistent workflow to manage hundreds of cloud services. With a vast ecosystem of providers covering AWS, Azure, GCP, and many others, these tools can automate infrastructure management across multiple cloud platforms.
OpenTofu emerged as a community-driven fork of Terraform following HashiCorp's license changes, maintaining compatibility while ensuring an open-source future.
Both tools excel at state management, drift detection, and infrastructure versioning, making them essential for modern DevOps practices and cloud-native development.
Computer Aided Design (CAD) as Code CADaC
OpenSCAD
OpenSCAD is a programmer's approach to 3D modeling, offering a powerful scripting language for creating precise parametric CAD models.
Unlike traditional CAD software, it uses a code-first approach where objects are built through programming constructs like functions, loops, and modules.
