 ## Development
 Code changes can easily be deployed by editing the .py files and then rezipping the project via `./zip-all.sh` and `./2-package.sh` in the `layer` directory. Then, running `tofu apply` run from the open-tofu directory will update only on the required resources and leave the others unchanged. If any `.tf.template` files are changed or `config.yaml` is edited, `hatch run ./configure.py` must be rerun followed by `tofu apply` in the open-tofu directory.
