It's amazing to see more contributors!

TBH, I was worried a few years ago that there was basically just one (original) contributor. This now gives me added trust that I'm taking the right decision to lean heavily into it.

I hope more people start using pyInfra.

Thank You for your contribution and attention!

Indeed! (I am that original contributor :)), lots of work ongoing to address this, we now have a small maintainers group and are sharing out review and release loads.

Nick, Yes Indeed! I sent you a fanmail Sun, Aug 3, 2025, 11:06 AM PST to your n..fizzadar.com email.

If you're reading this, I'll indulge and reask you the two questions:

- question 1: There's clearly a demand for a "Python as a DSL" for infrastructure projects - CDKTF/Python, CDK/Python, Pulumi, cdk8s etc are very popular. I would have imagined pyinfra to be way more popular and ubiquitous than it really is! Do you have thoughts on why pyinfra isn't more popular? How do people typically discover pyinfra? I would imagine any Python dev would intuitively grab pyinfra over Ansible?

- question 2: Do you have any thoughts about cdk8s? As you know well, Kubernetes has similar YAML "hell," and as someone who spends significant resources on pyinfra, I would guess you have given something like cdk8s thought?

I'm happy to engage either over email or here, don't have a preference.

Again, Thank You for building and sharing pyInfra.

Thanks!

There are currently 3 active maintainers incl. the creator of pyinfra. But there are many more contributors incl. repeat contributors.
