No matter how you like to participate in developer communities, Pulumi wants to meet you there. If you want to meet other Pulumi users to share use-cases and best practices, contribute code or documentation, see us at an event, or just tell a story about something cool you did with Pulumi, you are part of our community.

Pulumi Community

There are implementations like klotho and nitric that use Pulumi to infrastructure from code 

I think Pulumi is still an IaC tool, the reason is quite simple and straightforward.
As a user, I still need to define AWS resources respectively, e.g. role, permission, event_notifications etc. These are all small things that user shouldnt worry about.
