After working with AWS CloudFormation, the discovery of CDK was mind blowing!
Before it was like writing assembly language and suddenly you have a proper high-level programming language. Wow!
On an S3 Bucket object you can do a function call like grantReadPermissions(user) instead of the tedious job of writing the IAM statements yourself in CloudFormation
The book is really good.
Nevertheless, I have changed my mind about hosting infrastructure after reading this post: https://specbranch.com/posts/one-big-server/
So I am no longer using CDK for my projects
