Seems great for really small apps where you want your resource definitions colocated with the code using them. I'd imagine the benefits start to break down as your infrastructure gets more complicated.

The bigger answer is that if you're proficient and happy with CDK or anything else to wire resource up, you're probably not going to see much (if any) benefit.

Also where is this idea that it takes days to ship Python in CDK coming from?

Edit: great, getting downvoted for daring to ask the author to explain a claim. I’m noticing other people asking questions getting downvoted, too. Brigading isn’t a good look.
