Infrastructure as Code, of which Terraform / Terragrunt is one tool, definitely has its place in the Kubernetes / Docker ecosystem too.

You're right that it's somewhat of an afterthought and most IaC tools are focused on native cloud infrastructure though.

Check out Pulumi, they're doing amazing work extending Terraform (utilizing terraform itself, it's open source), as well as bringing kubernetes support for major cloud provider flavours as well as managing service deployments.
