I find cue lang [1] very practical/useful/terse, their idea of lattice based type system is very intuitive and expressive with very little code.

So happy (because cue is a great solution) and surprised (it's niche atm) to see cue mentioned!

I invite readers to try the cue/Kubernetes tutorial, its inspired: https://github.com/cuelang/cue/blob/v0.2.2/doc/tutorial/kube...

Here the language creator explains the inspiration and the concept, then he works through the above tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3fhA12KS48

With Cue, there is the possibility to import TFs definitions into Cue, write your IaC, and output to JSON. Like parent says, Cue feels like the right way to approach this IaC problem with a purpose built language. It was designed to manage this complexity.
