Not on the current edition
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar

We’re seeing a lot of movement in the infrastructure-as-code (IaC) space with tools like Winglang emerging. Winglang takes a different approach to defining infrastructure and run-time behavior. It provides high-level abstractions over platform specifics provided by tools such as CloudFormation, Terraform, Pulumi and Kubernetes. With Winglang, you write code that runs at compile time to generate infrastructure configuration and then code that executes at run time for application behavior. It provides a simulation mode to run locally and has an integrated test framework. We’re keeping an eye on this interesting tool; it’s a potential preview of the future direction of IaC.
