How to Get Started with Terraform on Google Cloud Platform

This tutorial guides users through creating a self-hosted WordPress instance using Terraform and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The purpose is not to provide a copy-paste template, but rather a clear path from point A to B. The steps include configuring the Terraform provider, setting up a virtual network, managing DNS records, configuring firewall settings, creating a MySQL database instance, and finally deploying a machine with an initialization script for WordPress installation. The tutorial also covers integration with Spacelift for automation configuration.
