I believe this was from a talk by @alavrik:

Looking forward to seeing how the work by WhatsApp will help Erlang (and other BEAM languages like Elixir and Gleam too).

If you see this Anton, are you working on a new language or something that might become part of Erlang itself?

Do you just use plain Terraform alone? Do you use CDK for Terraform or other supporting tools (e.g. Terraform Cloud ) for Terraform?
