TSX for Infra?


I was wondering about how things happen in the frontend (virtualizing dom using react component functions) and I thought it would be more natural to use tsx similary for definining infra, mainly cdk/cdktf/pulumi.

  
    
      
        
          Databases
        
        
          Api
        
        
          Load balancers
Main advantage is readability of course, but there might be much more. What do you think?

You are describing XML. Now you also need to figure out how to convert said XML into actual API calls that create/update/delete corresponding resources.

The question you need to ask yourself is why/how is this better than what Terrafrom provides.
