Composition-Functions

In Episode 10, we learned that Composition Functions allow us to escape the limitations of YAML. In this episode, we will write a custom Go program that dynamically generates an array of AWS Subnets based on a single integer provided by the Application Developer.

YAML is excellent for configuration, but terrible for programming. As your Platform scales, you will inevitably need for loops, complex if/else logic, and external API calls. In this final intermediate episode, we introduce Composition Functions—the architecture that allows you to write Crossplane logic in Turing-complete languages.
