## About this pathway
|
|
|
|
In this pathway, we will explore how you could use Pulumi as an API for your infrastructure deployment and maintenance.
|
|
|
|
Note that this pathway will not have a specific application and infrastructure to stand up. Rather, we're exploring the Pulumi system, so you can use either a code example of your own or one of ours.
