YAML is a step forward, but I wish that Amazon would give up on CloudFormation. It seems like it isn't a templating system so much as a bad programming language in the making.

I agree that it leaves much to be desired. What do you recommend instead?

  Pick your favorite programming language (or say ansible if u really love more yaml, or ...).

    Except that you can't do what CloudFormation does with just a programming languages alone or with Ansible.
