Use case terraform here.

Official documentation about aws provider, here all providers here

The code that I used to create the a single test instance

provider "aws" {
  region = "us-east-1"
}
resource "aws_instance" "vm" {
  ami           = "ami-03e0b06f01d45a4eb"
  subnet_id     = "subnet-02a2c5fc907e73765"
  instance_type = "t3.micro"
  monitoring    = "true"
  tags = {
    name        = "aws-instance"
    Terraform   = "true"
    Environment = "dev"
  }
}

Used commands:

Official details about terraform commands here

terraform --version
terraform init
terraform plan
terraform apply
terraform destroy

Create new instance

Just a quick check of the terraform version

[root@ip-10-0-1-236 terraform_aws]# terraform --version
Terraform v0.14.3
+ provider registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/aws v4.5.0

Your version of Terraform is out of date! The latest version
is 1.1.7. You can update by downloading from https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html

Initializing provider plugins

Terraform init usage here

[root@ip-10-0-1-236 terraform_aws]# terraform init

Initializing the backend...

Initializing provider plugins...
- Finding latest version of hashicorp/aws...
- Installing hashicorp/aws v4.5.0...
- Installed hashicorp/aws v4.5.0 (self-signed, key ID 34365D9472D7468F)

Partner and community providers are signed by their developers.
If you'd like to know more about provider signing, you can read about it here:
https://www.terraform.io/docs/plugins/signing.html

Terraform has created a lock file .terraform.lock.hcl to record the provider
selections it made above. Include this file in your version control repository
so that Terraform can guarantee to make the same selections by default when
you run "terraform init" in the future.

Terraform has been successfully initialized!

You may now begin working with Terraform. Try running "terraform plan" to see
any changes that are required for your infrastructure. All Terraform commands
should now work.

If you ever set or change modules or backend configuration for Terraform,
rerun this command to reinitialize your working directory. If you forget, other
commands will detect it and remind you to do so if necessary.

Terraform plan
