Learn Infrastructure-as-Code [the FUN way] through Minecraft

Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) spans far more than cloud resources—it reaches into OS configuration, VM and container images, Kubernetes manifests, Helm charts, and the workflows that bind them together. Each layer aligns differently to platform engineering and app dev. In this session, we’ll walk through those layers with clear comparisons, live demos, and a working Minecraft metaphor. We’ll start by building VM images with Packer, contrast them with Docker containers, and show how Terraform stitches OS-level configuration and infrastructure provisioning into a unified workflow. We then explore how Kubernetes deployments, YAML manifests, and Helm charts shift responsibilities between teams and why that matters. Through GitHub Actions demos—Packer image builds, Terraform pull-request workflows, and GitOps for VM-based workloads—we ground these concepts in real-world practice. Finally, we use Minecraft to visualize module composition, demonstrating how small, cohesive IaC modules assemble into scalable patterns. We close with a live terraform apply and terraform destroy on a Minecraft server to build and tear down a castle in real time!
