you can use `pulumi.Config()` and then wrap any resources in an if statement. Example in typescript

```const config = new pulumi.Config()
const doStuff = config.require_boolean("doStuff")

if doStuff {
  // my resource here
}```

you'd then set that value in your stack config `pulumi config set doStuff true`

you could also examine the stack name

```stack = pulumi.getStack()

if stack == "dev" {
  // do something
}```

Thanks!  Do component resources help here?  Perhaps encapsulating these check(s)?

they can! I wouldn't recommend having `getStack` or `config` calls in your component resource though, making them options on the resource itself is a good idea though
