I wish our HashiConf videos were up but they won't be up for another week or so. But the major theme for our Terraform announcements was "listening & reacting." We've been spending a lot of time with users/customers and listening to their feedback and we wanted to show that we're committed to that. Without going into the whole thing, a couple highlights are Terraform 0.12 and our commitment to collaboration for everyone. Both linked below. Hopefully these help a lot but we're definitely trying to make it easier to use across the board!
Terraform 0.12: https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/terraform-0-1-2-preview https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/terraform-0-1-2-preview It is in alpha right now (we've shipped 2 alpha releases over 2 weeks) and we're burning down bugs to get that out as quickly as possible.

- raziel2p 8y agoWhere do you go to find this feedback? Anywhere in particular or just reading all over the internet?
- technofiend 8y agoThey hired a TerraForm customer named Kristin Laemmert away from Nike and she gave an in depth talk on new language features in HCL such as for loops. She demonstrated a ton of before and after code snippets that included hacks she had to make in HCL to get things to work. She was pretty clear at least some of the work was in-flight before she started at Hashi so it seems they're using community input as well.
- rswail 8y agoAll of the changes for 0.12 HCL look great! I love declarative infrastructure but some of the tricks to iterate a map etc were hacks (using count as a boolean etc).
