So, what’s Cloud9?

A cloud-based terminal for your EC2 instances.

What Do You Need?

• A Running EC2 Instance. I make mine with Terraform!
• A reference to the default VPC, which you may need to remake (🙋🏾‍♀️) If you deleted yours. Not naming any names.

How Do I Put Terraform into Cloud9?

Follow the instructions here.

Done and Done. Now, How About Using It?

The kicker (or blessing) is that Cloud9 doesn't auto save, like I’ve set my VSCode up to do. Had to do a lot of manual saving, but it wasn’t a struggle.

The lock file is created, but I don't see it in my file system to the left until resources have been pushed, so I made a simple bucket to try it out.

Because this instance is attached to my AWS account, I suppose anything I make within this will be as well. Let's see!
