I still haven't got to trying it. I'm a bit suspicious, because it look like a SaaS kind of thing, while I was looking just for an open source tool to write some code that will spit out bunch of `yaml` files to feed to `kubectl`.
The runner is free, as is the tool chain. One of my employers has paid money for the SaaS state management; two others have not. We’ve gotten by just fine.
Thanks for explaining!
I am also suspicious as well. The biggest turn off for me initially was the fact that you had to login to use even the free tool. Apparently though this has been addressed somewhat overtime. (https://www.reddit.com/r/devops/comments/bcdwsn/pulumi/)
