## What it is
tfenv is a Terraform version manager written in Bash, inspired by rbenv. It lets developers install, switch, pin, and list multiple Terraform versions per project using .terraform-version files.

## Use cases
- manage multiple terraform versions
- switch terraform version per project
- pin terraform version in a repo
- install a specific terraform release
- list available terraform versions remotely

## When to choose
- you work across projects requiring different Terraform versions
- you want declarative version pinning via .terraform-version
- you use macOS, Linux, or git-bash on Windows

## When to avoid
- you use OpenTofu or need a multi-tool manager like mise or asdf
- you need a GUI or non-shell workflow
- you only ever use one Terraform version

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, cli, version-control
- domain: developer-tools, infrastructure-as-code
- platform: windows, cli
- tags: terraform, version-manager, shell, hashicorp, command-line, devops, macos, linux
