If you’re asking why aren’t DevOps/SRE mentioned specifically on the OpenTofu front page, I don’t think you understand how common this software is… Like if someone forked Google, you wouldn’t need to describe what Google is. Everyone already knows it. For the people in this industry, terraform is essentially a defacto monopoly. Even if you don’t use it, if you’re working in SRE, you know what it is and what it does.
Think about it, you’re a novice, or maybe a sales guy, project manager, or even just a developer. I’m a senior software developer and my understanding of what Terraform is doing, is rather vague - and 99% of that knowledge comes from a single guy I talked to a whole ago. These depths of infrastructure have been hardly of any relevance to me for quite some time.
Now, imagine one of the aforementioned people being told something about some weird soy based software and starting to google. This site won’t tell them, what they need to know. That’s what I meant above: this site is not intended for people who already know.

But what if you’re not in that business?
