February 2026 monthly summary for phuhung273/aws-cdk. Focused on delivering a stability-enhancing feature for nested stacks and validating its impact on template sizing and manageability. Key feature delivered: - Nested Stack Indentation Control: Added a new parameter suppressTemplateIndentation to NestedStackProps, enabling indentation suppression for nested stacks. This helps keep CloudFormation templates within AWS quotas while maintaining nested architecture. Corresponding commit: d629b15954bd313876de2df055265e27569af5a4 (feat(core): allow indentation suppression in nested stacks). Validation included unit tests and an integration test based on the existing integ.nested-stack-references.ts. Major bugs fixed: - No major bugs fixed reported this month. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved reliability and scalability of nested-stack deployments by preventing template size and indentation-related issues, enabling larger and more maintainable stack designs. - Strengthened code quality through targeted testing (unit + integration) and adherence to contribution guidelines. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - TypeScript, AWS CDK core, NestedStack APIs, and testing (unit and integration). - Design and implementation aligned with CloudFormation quotas and best-practice patterns for nested stacks.

November 2025 summary for phuhung273/aws-cdk focused on delivering CloudFormation dynamic reference support for AWS Secrets Manager. The work introduces reusable features to generate dynamic reference keys, enabling seamless secret retrieval in CloudFormation resources and reducing manual string manipulation. Validation included unit and integration tests to ensure reliability across core and aws-secretsmanager packages. Impact includes streamlined template authoring, improved correctness, and stronger alignment with AWS best practices.

Month: 2024-11 focused on delivering reliability and automation enhancements for AWS Glue jobs within the AWS CDK. Implemented automatic queuing for Glue job runs via the new jobRunQueuingEnabled property in the @aws-cdk/aws-glue-alpha package, along with validation to ensure compatibility with execution class and max retries. This reduces delays when quotas are exhausted and improves CI/CD throughput by minimizing manual intervention.
