1. New Infrastructure-as-Code Tool "formae" Takes Aim at Terraform

   Platform Engineering Labs has released formae, an open-source infrastructure-as-code platform designed to address limitations in existing tools, focusing on automatic discovery, codification of existing infrastructure, and a reconcile/patch workflow. It uses PKL instead of HCL and targets reducing drift and complexity.
