It's not a bad summary, but it is a shallow one. :)

You should love it because it's a more intuitive and more powerful way to build this kind of infrastructure automation. What's happening under the hood isn't just infrastructure as code with a UI - it's a full reactive model of how things work. That's what makes the UI possible, but it's also what brings about so much power - the code that drives those models is also fully exposed and versioned.

So when you have something like a policy to write, you think about what resources you need, use them as inputs to the function, and then store the results. Check out what an early user had to say about it: https://matthewsanabria.dev/posts/take-the-system-initiative...

We'll find out if you love it or not. :)
