## What it is
The official AWS collection of example projects for the AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), organized by programming language including TypeScript, Python, .NET, Java, and Go. Each example demonstrates common AWS service implementations and infrastructure patterns for building your own cloud infrastructure.

## Use cases
- learn aws cdk with example projects
- find cdk infrastructure patterns for common aws services
- see how to define cloud infrastructure in typescript or python
- bootstrap a cdk project from a working example
- compare cdk syntax across languages like java go and csharp

## When to choose
- you are learning the AWS CDK after completing the CDK Workshop or Developer Guide
- you need a reference implementation for a common AWS infrastructure pattern
- you want language-specific CDK examples with official maintenance

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready infrastructure code rather than illustrative examples
- you are looking for CDK tooling or the CDK framework itself
- you are a complete beginner who should start with the CDK Workshop first

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: infrastructure-as-code, developer-tools, documentation
- domain: infrastructure-as-code, cloud-computing, tutorials
- platform: cloud, python, jvm, dotnet, go, cli
- tags: aws-cdk, aws, examples, iac, cloudformation, typescript, devops, nodejs
