AI Speaks Terraform Like a Tourist

Is AI really just a “tourist” when it comes to Infrastructure as Code? While many DevOps practitioners find comfort in AI’s current struggles with complex Terraform repositories, this article argues we are misdiagnosing the problem. By comparing our current DevOps landscape to the “pre-React” era of web development, we explore why a lack of abstraction—not a lack of intelligence—is holding AI back. Discover why the shift toward high-level abstractions like BigConfig is turning AI from a fumbling tourist into a superhuman, and what this means for the future of your career.

DevOps Without the Code: Infrastructure as Markdown

Can you build a professional-grade cloud platform without writing a single line of code? By leveraging BigConfig and AI, I created the blueprint of a full-stack infrastructure—complete with DNS, SMTP, and TLS—in just three minutes using nothing but Markdown and declarative data.

By treating infrastructure as “pure data” rather than complex scripts, BigConfig acts as the “React of DevOps,” encapsulating messy Terraform and Ansible logic into clean, reusable components. This post explores a hands-off workflow where a simple Markdown plan is transformed into a working blueprint, proving that with the right abstractions, non-technical users can manage non-trivial infrastructure as easily as filling in a configuration manifest.

BigConfig: The "React" for Agentic DevOps

Stop asking AI to write “assembly code” for your deployment. Writing 500-line Terraform files is brittle, verbose, and a recipe for hallucination. In this article, we explore a paradigm shift: Component-Based DevOps.

By using BigConfig and the “once” package, you can move away from manual scripting and toward a “React-style” architecture for infrastructure. Learn how to combine Claude Code with high-level abstractions to build your own personal PaaS on providers like Hetzner and OCI—achieving deterministic, zero-touch deployments without the DSL headache. It’s time to stop writing infrastructure and start composing it.
