This project seems to wholesale ignore "terraform modules" in it's claims about reusability and modularity. Most of the problems it solves are already solved.

The description and marketing are very mixed. It generates bespoke Terraform based on... vague descriptions? "Give me a postgres DB" seems to be the level of input from what I can tell. It then goes off to create one and give you the TF it used? I was really hoping this was "automatically generate Terraform FROM AWS" to import existing resources.
This sounds like the SaaS-ified version of Gruntwork.io, where they give you best practices templates and leave it up to you to fill in the particulars.
