04/02/2021, 8:48 AMHi! I'm working on a component resource (I'm still learning) and I'm wondering what the 'remote' flag means for ComponentResource (https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/nodejs/pulumi/pulumi/#ComponentResource-constructor)? (I also see this constructor param for the Resource class). How should I decide if it needs to be true or false?

Hey, got an answer from @lemon-agent-27707!
remote=true will be set by SDKs for multi-language components. If users are just implementing program-level components they should not set this field.
