I picked up CDK & built out the same essential setup + DB, an EC2-ECS instance for ad-hoc stuff and a bunch of things to appease Config & Security Hub in ~420 lines of quite sparse python, that builds out to ~3000 lines of cloudformation yaml.

I feel CDK has the mix between optional granularity & high-level constructs just right, while this plugin looks nice for a quick MVP standup i'd be surprised to see it in use for production workloads
