| Today, we're excited to announce that the [Pulumi open source project](https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi) has crossed the incredible milestone of 20,000 stars on GitHub. 🎉 This is a huge achievement, and it wouldn't have been possible without y'all - our incredible global community of developers. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Since its inception, Pulumi's vision has been rooted in enabling teams to build and manage modern cloud infrastructure using familiar languages and tools. Over the years, your feedback, contributions, and passion have been invaluable in shaping Pulumi into what it is today. Seeing so many developers embrace our modern approach to cloud infrastructure management is really exciting. We are deeply grateful for the trust y'all have placed in us, and we will continue to push the boundaries in how teams manage cloud infrastructure. | ||||||
