+## Generic steps
+
+[Prettier](#prettier), [eclipse wtp](#eclipse-web-tools-platform), and [license header](#license-header) are available in every format, and they each have their own section. As mentioned in the [quickstart](#quickstart), there are a variety of simple generic steps which are also available in every format, here are examples of these:
+
+```gradle
+spotless {
+  // run a native binary
+  format 'terraform', {
+    target 'src/**/*.tf', 'src/**/*.tfvars' // you have to set the target manually
+    nativeCmd('terraform', '/opt/homebrew/bin/terraform', ['fmt', '-']) // name, path to binary, additional arguments
+  }
+}
+```
