Terraform Switcher

The tfswitch command line tool lets you switch between different versions of Terraform.
If you do not have a particular version of Terraform installed, tfswitch will download and verify the version you desire.
The installation is minimal and easy.
Once installed, simply select the version you require from the dropdown and start using Terraform.
