rake bootstrap

• setup and initialization tasks
• Sets up terraform modules
• create encrypted s3 bucket - ssh keys and terraform state
• locked down to (insert details here)
• generates ssh key, if it doesn't exist

Terraforming

After the bootstrap your usage is via rake as a thin wrapper around terraform plan, get, show, and destroy commands. You can skip that if you source the .env to allow running of terraform directly. (Just don't go wandering about into other environments after that).
