What is AWS CDK?
This revision card explains What is AWS CDK? It starts from the need that teams who already write TypeScript/Python want infra in the same language, with loops and tests. It describes CDK is a framework — you write app code that synthesizes CloudFormation templates, then deploy the stack. The how-to section notes npm/pip install aws-cdk , then cdk init , then write Stack , then cdk synth , then cdk deploy. An example on the card is synth emits cdk.out templates; deploy creates a Lambda and API you can curl.
