Bug is related to Implement a provider with the Terraform Plugin Framework website. I followed every instruction before problematic one to the letter.

Where is the problem

When I run terraform plan as indicated here I receive following error:

│ Error: Inconsistent dependency lock file
│ 
│ The following dependency selections recorded in the lock file are inconsistent with the current configuration:
│   - provider hashicorp.com/edu/hashicups: required by this configuration but no version is selected
│ 
│ To make the initial dependency selections that will initialize the dependency lock file, run:
│   terraform init
╵

I did what the information said and after invoking terraform init I received following error:

- Finding latest version of hashicorp.com/edu/hashicups...
╷
│ Error: Failed to query available provider packages
│ 
│ Could not retrieve the list of available versions for provider hashicorp.com/edu/hashicups: could not connect to
│ hashicorp.com: failed to request discovery document: 429 Too Many Requests
│ 
│ To see which modules are currently depending on hashicorp.com/edu/hashicups and what versions are specified, run the following
│ command:
│     terraform providers

which looks like that the terraform does not respect the change that I have done in .terraformrc file (contents of it below) saved under home directory (~). So I guess either way the tutorial page is outdated or some steps are not mentioned.

provider_installation {

  dev_overrides {
      "hashicorp.com/edu/hashicups" = "/home/doc/go/bin"
  }

  # For all other providers, install them directly from their origin provider
  # registries as normal. If you omit this, Terraform will _only_ use
  # the dev_overrides block, and so no other providers will be available.
  direct {}
}
