does SST compile to CF? for serverless stuff (and now the limited container stuff) what are the tradeoffs SST has vs CDK?

It used to use CDK/CF. There’s a long blog post about them deciding CF is unusably bad and moving to Pulumi this year.

It's built on top of pulumi, and their docs have some comparison against both CDK and pulumi in their FAQ section: https://sst.dev/docs/#faq
