      same. In typical AWS fashion, it is conceptually something I want, but at first glance, the ergonomics have me scared. I see a lot of "this" being passed around

          Most apps have infra code (yaml, now js?) and application code as separate things. It doesn't look like this bridges that divide. What I actually want is something that can inspect my application code and infer infrastructure. Make it all one world.

          more ambitious for sure, but totally. also weird to see constructors being instantiated but never used (ie, used for the side effects). feel like a lot of this could be solved by allowing logical groups and nesting in cfn.

          Its almost like I tried building this exact thing last year. And tweeted about it. And you replied telling me it was not a great idea. https://twitter.com/southpolesteve/status/919406133189767168 …https://twitter.com/jedschmidt/status/919407024798076928 …

          maybe you’d feel better having `state` be a static property of `Thing`, called `all`?

          I know exactly how I personally feel about that! The raw static imperative style of the aws-sdk is (likely accidentally) declarative with named params and mostly pure functions. More my style. Happy to see options for folks coming from traditional oop tho. Sorta.

          Oh, I feel that more than you can know. If you weren't already aware, there are a large number of people at my employer that program in .NET :)

          It was somewhere around beta 2 (of .net) in 2001 (or maybe 2002?) that I got into .NET coming from Java. It has some merits tho I bailed completely from all that jazz by 2006. It blows my mind this is still a thing.

          TC39 put OOP on a weird sort of life support and on accident purpose MSFT has managed near complete resuscitation of it w authortime types using the exact same marketing. Utterly bizarre.
