In providers.tf add backend to remote so you can operate in enhanced/remote/HCP as well as your state be in enhanced/remote/HCP & even stream to your CLI in VsCode..compared to standard state that just stores state (like an S3 backend)
TF Remote provider magic:
Seeing the TF at work locally in the CLI & live in HCP, woah – magic..
Then jump to the ole’ AWS Console to check your IaC
Alright alright alright, lets destroy in the CLI
Annnnnnnnnnd, once again you can see live “streamin” in HCP
OMG its gone!!
S3 —–> HCP Enhanced/Remote:
Then if you have your backend provider already established, you can see live the new state before any Terraform is planned or applied
