AWS CDK revolutionized the way we create resources in the cloud. It enables developers to write infrastructure as code and feel at home.

However, AWS CDK is such a flexible and powerful tool that it's easy to make mistakes. And some mistakes can be very costly.

In this talk, I'll present my take on AWS CDK best practices, gathered from almost three years of development stages to production with CDK.
I'll cover topics such as:
1. Project Structure and stack guidelines
2. Constructs guidelines
3. CI/CD guidelines
4. Resiliency & security guidelines
5. General development tips
