> Always write your plan -out, and apply that plan
I have in my dotfiles:
alias tfplan='terraform plan -out=.tfplan -refresh=false'
alias tffreshplan='terraform plan -out=.tfplan'
alias tfapply='terraform apply .tfplan; rm .tfplan'
That way I never accidentally `terraform apply` without creating a plan first. I also have it not refresh the state by default, which is mostly unnecessary and speeds up the planning significantly.
