Martin Atkins	f3a2165587	website: Use "Input Variable" as full term for var.foo ... We've historically been somewhat inconsistent in how we refer to the type of object defined by "variable" blocks in configuration. Parts of our documentation refer to them as "input variables" or just "variables", while our implementation refers to them as "user variables". Since Terraform Registry is now also referring to these as "Inputs", here we standardize on "Input Variable" as the fully-qualified name for this concept, with "variable" being a shorthand for this where context is obvious. Outside of this context, anything that can be referred to in an interpolation expression is generically known as a "variable", with Input Variables being just one kind, specified by the "var." prefix. While this terminology shift is not critical yet, it will become more important as we start to document the new version of the configuration language so we can use the generic meaning of "variable" there.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	91a4af9c8a	website: rewrite modules usage documentation for new features ... The modules mechanism has changed quite a bit for version 0.11 and so although simple usage remains broadly compatible there are some significant changes in the behavior of more complex modules. Since large parts of this were rewritten anyway, I also took the opportunity to do some copy-editing to make the prose on this page more consistent with our usual editorial voice and to wrap the long lines.	9 years ago
