Now, let me explain each part of YAML Pipeline for better understanding.
PART #1:-
BELOW FOLLOWS PIPELINE VARIABLES CODE SNIPPET:-
#DECLARE VARIABLES:-

NOTE:-
1. Please change the values of the variables accordingly.
2. The entire YAML pipeline is build using Variables. No Values are Hardcoded.
PART #2:-
This is a Single Stage Pipeline – TEST_CDK_FOR_TERRAFORM_ON_WINDOWS (with 1 Pipeline Task):-

PIPELINE TASK #1:-:-
1. Validate Chocolatey Package Manager.
2. Install and validate Terraform.
3. Validate Node.
4. Validate Yarn.
5. Install and validate CDK for Terraform.
