awesome thanks! as the Terraform CDK does that and converts the code to a bunch of Terraform templates. Even Azure bicep does the extra transpile step

Yep. The Pulumi engine (well, the plugins associated with the providers, invoked by the engine) make API calls directly.

ok thanks for clarifying :slightly_smiling_face:

Some providers' SDKs are built from Terraform providers. For example, the  AWS Classic provider. This also builds the docs for the provider, which is why you see references to Terraform, and examples in the docs that look like Terraform HCL.
