## 4. Terragrunt Best Practices

Adopt industry-proven patterns to keep your Terragrunt codebase maintainable, DRY, and scalable. Key topics include:

* Enforcing DRY across modules
* Structuring live vs. non-live configurations
* Automating environment promotions (e.g., dev → staging → prod)

<Callout icon="triangle-alert" color="#FF6B6B">
  Avoid duplicating `terragrunt.hcl` blocks across environments. Centralize shared logic in a single parent config to reduce errors.
</Callout>

## 6. Advanced Use Cases

Take your skills to the next level by exploring:
