We just announced The Road to Terragrunt 1.0! Over the coming months, we'll be publishing both blog posts and Terragrunt feature releases that will eventually culminate in Terragrunt 1.0. The major improvements that we announced are: 1. Terragrunt UX and CLI improvements 2. Terragrunt Stacks 3. Terragrunt Remote Runners 4. A stronger Terragrunt community 5. A fancy new Terragrunt logo On a personal note, it was really exciting to finally publish this blog post. There are thousands of Terragrunt users worldwide, and we interviewed dozens of them, plus brainstormed a bunch of ideas internally ourselves. Ultimately, we see a world where every team works with small deployable units of infrastructure, and we'd like Terragrunt to be the best way to accomplish that. We're also excited about the enthusiasm we're seeing with Terragrunt Stacks. For many years now, Terragrunt has done a great job of enabling you to work in small deployable units of infrastructure. With Terragrunt Stacks, we'll be able to help users combine a common set of units to handle use cases like creating new environments, create complex new applications, or standing up new customers. And of course, we're excited to finally have a Terragrunt logo. :) You can read the official blog post at https://lnkd.in/gitE3-us. Feedback welcome as always!
