Don't like the new CDK v2 way of importing. IDE can't resolve for me. Everything is longer. 😞

import { cloudformation_include as cloudformation, aws_iam as iam, aws_s3 as s3, RemovalPolicy } from "aws-cdk-lib";

You can do

import * as iam from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-iam';

or

import { PolicyStatement } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-iam';

Ah, didn't see that the folder approach is available. That's an improvement.

It means you have more distinct imports, but it also means that refactoring from v1 is even easier. You are just replacing

@aws-cdk

with

aws-cdk-lib

in many cases.

Old code was

import * as cdk

Have to find where all the types are hiding in the new library.

That's where it doesn't work. Still as upgrade paths go and somebody who used to work with spring, this is easy 😉

Oh, now I found the working pattern. 👍

I think future js is gonna be all about importing from nested folders

A grim future

If the IntelliJ would be smart enough to do it, I'd be fine with it.
