-This template repository equips you with the default initial files required for a Ministry of Justice GitHub repository.
+## Docker container for local terraform development
 
-## Included Files
+Here the NVVS DevOps development container is defined.
 
-The repository comes with the following preset files:
+It can be used locally to enable a consistent development experience across platforms
+(Linux, Windows, MacOS (Intel & M1 ARM)).
 
-- LICENSE
-- .gitignore
-- CODEOWNERS
-- dependabot.yml
-- GitHub Actions example file
-- Ministry of Justice Compliance Badge (Public repositories only)
+### How to build
 
-## Setup Instructions
+Prerequisite Docker installed, Make.
 
-Once you've created your repository using this template, ensure the following steps:
+```shell
+make build
+```
 
-### Update README
+### How to use
 
-Edit this README.md file to document your project accurately. Take the time to create a clear, engaging, and informative README.md file. Include information like what your project does, how to install and run it, how to contribute, and any other pertinent details.
+Suggestion for use with [AWS-VAULT](https://ministryofjustice.github.io/nvvs-devops/documentation/team-guide/best-practices/use-aws-sso.html#configure-aws-vault)
 
-### Update repository description
+#### Freeflow
 
-After you've created your repository, GitHub provides a brief description field that appears on the top of your repository's main page. This is a summary that gives visitors quick insight into the project. Using this field to provide a succinct overview of your repository is highly recommended.
+Create an alias for use with the local build
 
-This description and your README.md will be one of the first things people see when they visit your repository. It's a good place to make a strong, concise first impression. Remember, this is often visible in search results on GitHub and search engines, so it's also an opportunity to help people discover your project.
+```shell
+alias toold='docker run --rm -ti -v $(pwd):/data --env-file <(aws-vault exec $AWS_PROFILE -- env | grep ^AWS_) ministryofjustice/nvvs/terraforms:latest'
+```
 
-### Grant Team Permissions
+In terraform directory run
 
-Assign permissions to the appropriate Ministry of Justice teams. Ensure at least one team is granted Admin permissions. Whenever possible, assign permissions to teams rather than individual users.
+```shell
+toold
+```
 
-### Read about the GitHub repository standards
+To use the version hosted on the [GitHub Container Registry](https://github.blog/tag/container-registry/) attached to this repository/
 
-Familiarise yourself with the Ministry of Justice GitHub Repository Standards. These standards ensure consistency, maintainability, and best practices across all our repositories.
+```shell
+alias tooldgh='docker run --rm -ti -v $(pwd):/data --env-file <(aws-vault exec $AWS_PROFILE -- env | grep ^AWS_) ghcr.io/ministryofjustice/nvvs/terraforms:v0.2.0'
+```
 
-You can find the standards [here](https://operations-engineering.service.justice.gov.uk/documentation/services/repository-standards.html).
+### Tools included
 
-Please read and understand these standards thoroughly and enable them when you feel comfortable.
+See the [Dockerfile](./Dockerfile) for full details. However initially this container is a large utility container to reduce developer friction while upgrading the repositories to a consistent version(s) of Terraform.
 
-### Modify the GitHub Standards Badge
+- Terraform (via TFENV)
+- AWS CLI v2
+- TFLINT
+- kubectl
+- helm
 
-Once you've ensured that all the [GitHub Repository Standards](https://operations-engineering.service.justice.gov.uk/documentation/services/repository-standards.html) have been applied to your repository, it's time to update the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) Compliance Badge located in the README file.
+### Create tagged release
 
-The badge demonstrates that your repository is compliant with MoJ's standards. Please follow these [instructions](https://operations-engineering.service.justice.gov.uk/documentation/runbooks/services/add-repo-badge.html) to modify the badge URL to reflect the status of your repository correctly.
+NOTE: This needs refining.
 
-**Please note** the badge will not function correctly if your repository is internal or private. In this case, you may remove the badge from your README.
+- Push the branch to github and get a pull request approved.
+- Merge to main
+- Depending on the increment run `make tag SEMVAR=[ patch | minor | major ]`
 
-### Manage Outside Collaborators
+## Example usage in Makefile
 
-To add an Outside Collaborator to the repository, follow the guidelines detailed [here](https://github.com/ministryofjustice/github-collaborators).
+This is an example of how it can be used with one of the NVVS DevOps Terraform projects.
 
-### Update CODEOWNERS
+```makefile
+#!make
+.DEFAULT_GOAL := help
+SHELL := '/bin/bash'
 
-(Optional) Modify the CODEOWNERS file to specify the teams or users authorized to approve pull requests.
+CURRENT_TIME := `date "+%Y.%m.%d-%H.%M.%S"`
+TERRAFORM_VERSION := `cat versions.tf 2> /dev/null | grep required_version | cut -d "\\"" -f 2 | cut -d " " -f 2`
 
-### Configure Dependabot
+LOCAL_IMAGE := ministryofjustice/nvvs/terraforms:latest
+DOCKER_IMAGE := ghcr.io/ministryofjustice/nvvs/terraforms:v0.2.0
 
-Adapt the dependabot.yml file to match your project's [dependency manager](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file#package-ecosystem) and to enable [automated pull requests for package updates](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/supply-chain-security).
+DOCKER_RUN := @docker run --rm \
+				--env-file <(aws-vault exec $$AWS_PROFILE -- env | grep ^AWS_) \
+				--env-file <(env | grep ^TF_VAR_) \
+				--env-file <(env | grep ^ENV) \

+				-v `pwd`:/data \
+				--workdir /data \
+				--platform linux/amd64 \
+				$(DOCKER_IMAGE)
 
-If your repository is private with no GitHub Advanced Security license, remove the .github/workflows/dependency-review.yml file.
+DOCKER_RUN_IT := @docker run --rm -it \
