Requirements

Node.js 24 or later, from nodejs.org. The repo .nvmrc pins Node 24, which is what CI tests against.

Install

A lexicon is the plugin that generates output for one platform, such as AWS or Kubernetes. Install the lexicon for your platform, which also installs the chant CLI:

npm install --save-dev @intentius/chant-lexicon-aws

See the AWS lexicon reference for intrinsic functions, composites, and examples.

Verify the Installation

Check the install:

chant --version

Next, follow the Quick Start.
