The book has a new home
Welcome to the new home of The Pulumi Book! If you’ve been here before, things look a little different — and quite a bit more like a book.
What’s new
Section titled “What’s new”The site is now built with Astro Starlight, the same documentation framework used by a growing number of open-source projects. A few things come along for the ride:
- The whole book is here. Every chapter, section, and subsection is navigable from the sidebar, with a table of contents on each page.
- The examples are one click away. There’s a dedicated examples page listing every runnable Pulumi program from the book.
- This blog. A place for me to post updates as the book grows — new chapters, reworked examples, errata, and the occasional aside.
Generated straight from the manuscript
Section titled “Generated straight from the manuscript”Here’s the part I’m most pleased about: the entire book section of this site is generated automatically from the manuscript. I write the book in Markua for Leanpub, and a small converter turns those chapters into the pages you’re reading now — code listings, figures, cross-references, and all. When I push an update to the manuscript, the website rebuilds itself.
That means there’s no separate “web version” of the book to keep in sync. There’s just the book, and this is one of the ways you can read it.
What’s next
Section titled “What’s next”More chapters, for one. I’ll post here as new material lands, so check back — or grab the RSS feed if that’s more your speed.
Thanks for reading, and as always, you can find me on Twitter / X.
Happy Pulumifying!
