I don't understand whats the value added on top of normal CDK. There I can also define Aws infrastructure with Typescript and I don't have to pay a subscription.

It looks like the value add is similar to gruntwork.io where they maintain a catalog of scripts (hopefully) designed with best practices in mind

Why do you want to use the enterprise plan and not the open-source one?

It's free, open-source, you could generate a complete infrastructure in seconds, you could manage multiple environments and sandboxes for team work.

Maybe the landing page is not very clear?

That was my first impression too - I've been using cdktf and love it.

But this tool isn't for you and me - it's for front-end developers that don't want to fuss with devops. Seems like a great idea with that in mind.
