Join a Pulumi User Group (PUG) Meetup!

Monday, May 1, 2023

We have a global community made up of people from many different countries, but we also have many local communities. We want to enable our users to meet, share knowledge and ideas, answer questions, and learn about Pulumi and best practices. For that reason, we created the Pulumi User Groups, aka PUGs on Meetup.

Members of PUGs will have access to a global network of experts who can offer help, advice, and support on using Pulumi effectively. The PUGs will also feature regular in-person meetups, webinars, in-person and virtual workshops, and other events to help members stay up-to-date with the latest cloud infrastructure and Pulumi developments.

International Women's Day: Celebrating our Women in Tech

Wednesday, Mar 8, 2023

Today is International Women’s Day, and this year the theme is #EmbraceEquity - which means creating an equitable environment. An equitable work environment means understanding that everyone, regardless of gender, religion, ethnicity, background, or resources, brings strength to the workforce and that opportunities should be given to them based on their individual needs.

For Pulumi, it means a work environment where everyone can share ideas and respect them even when disagreeing. Women’s experiences - as well as men’s and nonbinary’s experiences - inform the direction of digital technology and innovation.

Announcing Pulumi Community Slack Archive

Monday, May 2, 2022

Creating a place for the Pulumi community to gather, ask questions, get help in real-time, and share successes has been an important part of the explosive growth we’ve seen in both users and customers. The Pulumi community slack has grown to over 7000 members and well over 200,000 messages.

Within those 200,000 messages are years of information kept behind a “walled garden” that is undiscoverable outside Slack’s search capabilities.

Today we’re announcing that our community slack is now publicly available via https://archive.pulumi.com thanks to Linen

March 15th, 2022… just two weeks ago. The Go team released Go 1.18 to the world. What seems like a trivial point release actually brings a huge new feature to the Go language: Generics.

In this article, I want to show you how you can use this new feature to build a great developer experience with your abstractions for your Pulumi programs.
