You can also use SST Framework for skinning Lambda Function. Wing is interesting do we have full control on development? Thank you for showing different skins for Lambda functions.
Hey Sakar, what do you mean by full control of development?
As a developer, we have many use cases. E.g., when we update DynamoDB, we want to send an email to the user. The writing step functions for many use cases, like receiving messages from an external payment gateway and so on. So a language must be flexible enough to be bent by the developers to support end-user needs. This is what I mean by development-friendly language.
Wing seems definitely cool, so can basically work with any cloud resources that provide terraform providers, but no need for writing
.hcl
?Hey @pmig, correct!
Wing can compile to terraform and then you pick a target so there is no need to write .hcl
If you look at our playground and click on the "AWS/TERRAFORM" tab, you will see all of the resources that are automatically generated.
I hope this answers your question.

This was really awesome!
Great writeup @fernandezbaptiste!
Thanks a lot Nathan! 🙇
You're welcome, really appreciate your support!
Wow, this is really interesting. I think I need to check out Wing!
Awesome, I'd love to hear your feedback!
Interesting. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome @utpalnadiger, glad you liked it.
nice one! How hard is it to learn Wing? What would you say it is the most similar to?
@matijasos, Wing is the most similar to JavaScript syntax.
To give developers options and a better experience, we are rolling out full support for additional languages.
TypeScript is the first and will be added within the coming weeks. The only caveat is you will have to install the Wing SDK.
This will make the console fully accessible for local debugging and testing without having to learn the Wing language.
Thanks for this Nathan, it's nice to see the evolution of tools in this space and how much we've progressed
I agree Shai, this was a lot of fun to put together and see the comparison back to back :)
Cool guide. :)
Thanks, Deb, much appreciated!
