3 years ago By the way, I assume Chef broke similar ground here, since they used Ruby and a fair bit of their community came from non-developer backgrounds. I found this guide (https://docs.chef.io/ruby/) which is close to what I had imagined, although it's a bit more of a holistic end to end tour of the syntax, versus "the minimum features and best practices you need to know."

2 years ago I'll handraise to shepherd this along. I probably won't be the person to write all of them (my C# is... entertaining), but I can at least start something.

2 years ago Adding Lee's in-progress doc here for reference: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14w1NFUDPxT3qOMEtycMTmq6J6ptJ36r0B9sVCt9wO6A/edit#heading=h.widltx1dim94
We're picking it up from here and planning on getting at least one of these docs out this quarter (looks like TS to begin with).
Right now we assume folks wanting to learn Pulumi understand their language of choice. For many newcomers, however, that's not the right assumption to make.
Let's write a series of user guides that detail the minimum you need to know about language X to be successful with Pulumi. It turns out you can get started with a vast subset -- especially in languages like Python -- and that we should be able to give you a quick 20 minute tour of that subset.
