Example: Quick Start Simple

Minimal Atmos setup with a single component and three environments.

Learn more in the Quick Start Guide.

What You'll See

• Basic stack configuration with dev, staging, and prod environments
• A simple Terraform component (station)
• Catalog pattern for shared component defaults

Try It

Install Atmos. The example pins OpenTofu and Atmos installs it automatically when needed.

From this example's directory, run:

# List all stacks
atmos list stacks

# Describe the station component in dev
atmos describe component station -s dev

# Plan every component in dev (there is one in this minimal quick start).
atmos terraform plan --all -s dev
