      It’s open source fork of terraform. It’s a tool for setting up cloud infrastructure in a way that can go into source control.

          Assuming you are not joking: Terraform is a tool to build virtual machines and networks etc from a configuration file. So, I make a file describing a webserver with 16GB of TAM, a system and data disk each 1tb, 3 network interfaces with ip addresses etc etc. and feed it to Terraform. TF will then contact my cloud(s) an d build it all.
