Can I follow a guide to build the Ref Arch from scratch?
A customer asked: > Can I read some documentation to build the Ref Arch myself if I only purchase the Gruntwork subscription?
While we have put thought into allowing users to do this, and have experimented with its feasibility internally, this is not something we currently support. We would like to support it in the future, with at least one "flavor" of the Ref Arch. In the past, we've directed our limited resources toward improving the Ref Arch, offering new frequently requested features, and improving our internal tooling to increase the speed at which we're able to offer the Ref Arch. As a result, we've not yet been able to prioritize a complete end-to-end guide that has been thoroughly tested and verified. That said, we do publish [complete production ready examples](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terraform-aws-service-catalog/tree/master/examples/for-production) for all of the modules in our Service Catalog, for anyone who may wish to experiment and learn more this way. The Ref Arch itself ships with documentation explaining how to get up and running with your deployment and accomplish common development and maintenance tasks.
