A Cloud Development Kit (CDK) allows developers to define cloud infrastructure using familiar programming languages like TypeScript and Python, enhancing productivity and consistency. AWS CDK further simplifies this by converting high-level code into CloudFormation templates. Using WebAssembly and Extism, CDKs can support multiple languages, making infrastructure management more efficient. An example demonstrates creating an S3 bucket with version control using AWS CDK and TypeScript.
