OpenTofu: Open-Source Alternative to Terraform

OpenTofu, a fork of Terraform, has been created by the initiative of OpenTF supported by various companies in response to HashiCorp's switch from an open-source license to BSL. OpenTofu is an open-source version of Terraform and offers improvements and enhancements while retaining all features that made Terraform popular among developers. It has been forked from Terraform version 1.5.6 and is now a part of the Linux Foundation, with the ultimate goal of joining the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). OpenTofu's manifesto presents HashiCorp with two options: switching Terraform back to an open-source license or creating a fork of Terraform that will be placed in a foundation. The community behind OpenTofu initiative includes almost 144 companies, over 10 projects, and over 718 individuals.
