Terraform has been well
known open-source infrastructure as code software tool created by HashiCorp ,
which enables users to define and provision a datacenter infrastructure using a
high-level configuration language known as Hashicorp Configuration Language, or
optionally JSON.
To install Terraform on
windows 10 machine there are some simple steps you have to proceed with to get
it done.
In the following article we
will be focused around that.
Kindly open the following link
in you browser and go to bottom to download it for windows https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html
Though there will be various
option available , but you choose an option to go with Windows 64 bit for
windows 10.
Once you have download that (in my case: terraform_0.12.13_windows_amd64)
Just extract
that and place in your desired drive like I have put it in C drive as shown
below:
Windows 10 and
Windows 8
1. Go to Control

2. Click
the Advanced system settings link or Search Advanced system settings
in search. Refer advance-settings.jpg

shown in image env_varibale.jpg
4. In the Edit
System Variable (or New System Variable) window, specify
the value of the PATH environment
variable. Click OK. Close all remaining windows by clicking OK.
