CDKTF Has a Free API: Write Terraform Infrastructure with TypeScript Instead of HCL

What is CDKTF? CDKTF (Cloud Development Kit for Terraform) lets you write Terraform infrastructure using TypeScript, Python, Go, C#, or Java instead of HCL. You get the full Terraform ecosystem — thousands of providers — with real programming language features. Quick Start npm install -g cdktf-cli cdktf init --template=typescript --providers=aws cdktf deploy Define Infrastructure import { Construct } from "constructs"; import { App, TerraformStack, TerraformOutput } from "cdktf"; import { AwsProvider } from "@cdktf/provider-aws/lib/provider"; import { S3Bucket } from "@cdktf/provider-aws/lib/s3-bucket"; import { Instance } from "@cdktf/provider-aws/lib/instance"; import { SecurityGroup } from "@cdktf/provider-aws/lib/security-group"; class MyStack extends TerraformStack { constructor(scope: Construct, id: string) { super(scope, id); new AwsProvider(this, "aws", { region: "us-east-1" }); // S3 bucket const bucket = new S3Bucket(this, "my-bucket", { bucket: "my-app-assets-2026", tags: {
