Dagger originally started with CUE, and is still powered by it under the hood, which has the constructs you mention, while also being turing incomplete.

I don't understand this move to define infra and CI imperatively, and tool vendors moving to support umptine languages for their users... Say what the world should look like, not how to get there?

Thanks for your work on cue (cuetorials)!

It's really a blessing for something like CUE to come (I've had some exposure to gcl/bcl and if it wasn't for the internal diffing tool, I would've been lost - https://pure.tue.nl/ws/portalfiles/portal/46927079/638953-1.... )

I've even started prototyping something like bazel/gn but based on cue, but no time to finish it up.

Software is never finished... keep moving it forward when you can!
