Ah yes - Pulumi relies on vanilla YAML, which is nicer for developers, SREs
and others overall in my opinion.
One thing I noticed moving to Pulumi is that the learning curve is less to
get started (something Hashicorp struggles with in general). For example,
there are easy-to-actually-use YAML templates for each major cloud provider
you can use right away.
