simpler-state VS terraform-cdk

The link go to a 404. There is the correct link : https://github.com/arnelenero/simpler-state

Would that be the transform function from here [1]?

I do agree too that this definitely should be a library on its own.

Anyway thanks for your work; I'll definitely check SimpleR in my project.

Show HN: SimpleR State – simplest state management for React\ (18 comments)

Hi. There are LOTS of much more popular libs you can choose from. My library does not intend to compete as the "best" library, but it has a very specific set of goals, the topmost of which is simplicity through a minimalist API.

Everyone has different priorities when choosing a library, so I suggest going through the design goals that I highlighted in the README file, or complete documentation here:

https://simpler-state.js.org

and see if it fits what you're specifically looking for in a library.

At the end of the day, all these libraries are just React code. In that sense they differ in terms of patterns/principles behind their implementation, but maybe more importantly, in the API/syntax (which is what immediately matters to the developer using it). This is what I can confidently say that SimpleR State delivers... one of the simplest APIs you can find.

I opened a Request For Comments (here) on GitHub. Your comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to drop me a comment here 👇 too.

At first I tested it to deploy an OVHcloud Managed Kubernetes Service (MKS) with a Node Pool. And step by step, it worked. I even created a Pull Request (PR) in the terraform-cdk repository to add it as an example ☺️.

I'll be trying more sample app deployments with CDK and maybe even explore CDK for Terraform.

You can use CDK with other providers using https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-cdk

In my experience, CDK is far better than Pulumi, especially if you're mostly going to be using AWS.

I, personally, prefer Crossplane Composite Functions on top of CDK8S, but had dropped CDKTF due to bloat. You can actually manage Kubernetes updates/upgrade lifecycle with Crossplane, as well.

I was going to recommend Pulumi, but looks like CDK for Terraform is still being kept up to date.

Avoid Pulumi, get directly to source and use https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-cdk
