Also is extending `ComponentResource` the way to group resources together similar to how a AWS `cdk Stack` does Specifically I m looking to create a class that contains some resources like `s3 Bucket`s

little-cartoon-10569 · Answer

ComponentResources are for doing exactly this And that s why the type token is required

It allows you have for example a bucket and a bucket policy with the same name

You d end up with two URNs which are very similar but one would have aws s3 bucket and one would have aws iam policy or similar
