I don't believe everything should be in code. I think code is too verbose and a config file just make sense in many cases.

  Well-written code in an expressive language can be very close to a config file, but also has the nice ability to scale up in complexity when required.

    It's not either or. A config file checked into git and applied by a CI/CD pipeline is infrastructure as code.

      Config files work fine. But so does expressive code with the right abstractions. And I think code scales up better and down almost as well. Just my opinion.

  if you're talking yaml... you could argue that config file is also code, just a different language
