Wing is an open-source, cloud-oriented programming language that unifies infrastructure definitions and application runtime code in a single language. It compiles to deployable cloud artifacts, runs locally via a fully functional simulator without internet, and produces portable programs deployable across cloud providers.

Use cases

• build serverless applications with infrastructure and code in one language
• test cloud applications locally without deploying
• write portable cloud code that works across AWS, Azure, and GCP
• define cloud resources like queues and buckets as first-class language constructs
• reduce iteration cycles for cloud development
• avoid hand-writing IAM roles and networking configuration

When to choose

• you want infrastructure and application logic unified in one language
• you need fast local testing of cloud applications via a simulator
• you want cloud-portable code not locked to a single provider
• you are building distributed systems on managed cloud services

When to avoid

• you need a mature, production-hardened language with a large ecosystem
• your project is not cloud-oriented or runs on a single machine
• you are heavily invested in existing IaC tools like Terraform or CDK
• you require long-term stability guarantees from the language
