StateLens

The Privacy-First Terraform Visualizer. 100% Local.

What it does

StateLens turns complex terraform.tfstate files into interactive architecture diagrams instantly. Your data never leaves your browser. Most visualizers require cloud uploads or complex CLI installations. StateLens runs entirely in your browser memory using the File API. It provides a secure, zero-install environment for DevOps engineers and consultants. Stop staring at 5,000 line JSON files. Visualize your infrastructure securely in seconds.

    Hi HN, we're Lucas and Lucas, the authors of Layerform (https://github.com/ergomake/layerform). Layerform is an open-source tool for setting up development environments using plain .tf files.

Many teams have a single (or too few) staging environments, which developers have to queue to use. This is particularly a problem when a system is large,…

It's got to be easy to build so something visual probably; and it's got to be "real" so perhaps some kind of infra-as-code underneath. We experimented a lot with the low-code angle (the most recent OpsFlow which we got tons of feedback on from HN - thank you!!) And then it hit us. With python, there's a huge difference in ease of use between a Jupyter notebook and locally run python code, even though the code is the same. So we don't even need to…
