Terraform

Terraform is an open-source infrastructure as code software tool that provides a consistent CLI workflow to manage hundreds of cloud services. Terraform codifies cloud APIs into declarative configuration files.

Linting Tools

Linting is the process of performing static analysis on source code to flag patterns that might cause errors or other problems. As an application progresses through the various stages of development, code quality becomes critical. Testing your code to ensure that it meets functional requirements is a given, but it's also important to ensure that your code doesn't include any structural issues. Poorly structured code can impact the reliability and efficiency of your application and make your code harder to maintain. Linting is the key to finding and resolving functional and structural problems. By using linting tools, you can identify and correct common code mistakes without having to run your app or write test cases. Linters are available for most coding languages and can typically be implemented several ways to suit your development needs.

Git Hooks

Like many other Version Control Systems, Git has a way to fire off custom scripts when certain important actions occur. There are two groups of these hooks: client-side and server-side. Client-side hooks are triggered by operations such as committing and merging, while server-side hooks run on network operations such as receiving pushed commits. You can use these hooks for all sorts of reasons.
