Semantic Linting
Lint rules validate meaning, not structure. Rules operate on concepts like “resource has encryption” rather than cloud-specific property names.
chant
A type system for operations. Declare intent in TypeScript, validate with semantic rules, synthesize artifacts.
Features
Section titled “Features”Plain TypeScript
Declare operations as exported TypeScript objects — no DSL, no YAML, no decorators. Full type safety and IDE support.
Lexicons
Each operational area is a lexicon. AWS CloudFormation ships today — 1500+ resources with full type coverage. Build your own for any operational area.
Spec-True Output
Output is native to the target spec — standard CloudFormation, standard GitLab CI. Zero lock-in. If you stop using chant, the artifacts keep working.
Composable
Build reusable presets and composite resources with plain functions and the spread operator.
