  • Optional: Install the DigitalOcean doctl command line tool locally
• Install Terraform CLI locally
  • Create a Terraform Cloud Account

  • Create 2 new Terraform Cloud workspaces named iac_do and deploy-iac-do and choose the "No VCS connection" option
  • Enable local execution mode in both newly created workspaces
  • Create a new Terraform API token
• Snyk account API Token
• Docker Hub account and create an API token
