## 📌 Why rtftree?

Terraform projects often include:

-   `.terraform/`
-   `terraform.tfstate`
-   `.terraform.lock.hcl`
-   `.git/`
-   Provider binaries
-   Deeply nested modules

Sharing structure manually becomes messy and unreadable.

🔥 **rtftree solves this problem** by generating a clean, structured tree
view of your infrastructure project --- ready for documentation,
sharing, and audits.
