I'm really liking CDK so far - it feels like Typescript which I'm using it with fits is really well. Things like being able to pass variables around (like which branch to deploy!) is really nice - makes some things that would be really horrible in plain CloudFormation really easy. I do worry a bit about TypeScript (or really any 'complete' programming language) for defining infrastructure though, I could easily see loads of ways to make it really hard and complex to follow. I wonder if an eslint plugin could help keep things on the right path.
