TFLint checks the code with rules that terraform validate does not have, such as an instance type that does not exist in AWS. Provider plugins add rules for AWS, Azure and Google Cloud.

Key concepts #

  • Plugin: the ruleset of a provider.
  • .tflint.hcl: the configuration file.
  • Pair it with Checkov for security.
