Is there an F# reference doc? I know there is a C# one however not seeing an F# resource though pulumi has F# support

If you checkout the F# SDK code, you’ll see that right now it just provides some F# specific QOL functions and extensions from the C# SDK, but beyond that using F# with Pulumi just relies on your ability to reference the C# SDK from F#.

Gotcha gotcha. How about powershell support in the future? Microsoft has been pushing powershell core fairly hard and I can see this opening a door for the more systems oriented folks
When I say “how about” I mean will there be Powershell support?

There’s an issue on that topic https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/3507

Looks like Pulumi has basically said they aren’t focused on it which has upset a few people and so now the community is trying to build their own powershell support for Pulumi. Also if you don’t have F# documentation for Pulumi then what’s the point of even stating support for F#? Kinda seems like a “oh hey if you can figure it out you can use F#” kind of statement rather than actual support for it.

Why document F# when the documentation would be identical to the C# documentation? You can use C# class libraries from F#. That said I don’t work for pulumi, brother. You could comment/like on the PS issue to show you are interested and see if there is an issue for F# documentation, or make one.

Never said you did work for Pulumi 😅.
But I guess you're right. I just like specific documentation I guess.
