OpenTofu is a Terraform fork, created as an initiative of Gruntwork, Spacelift, Scalr, Harness, Env0, and others, in response to HashiCorp’s switch from an open-source license to the business license.
The initiative has many supporters who advocate for open-source license to ensure a single, impartial, reliable home for Terraform where the whole community could unite to keep building this amazing ecosystem. The manifesto has been endorsed by over 140 companies, involving 11 projects with the participation of over 700 individuals.
Scalr and other supporters have collaborated to form a team of full-time contributors to lead the development of OpenTofu.
