Add your +1 👍 to help us prioritize high-level constructs for this service

Overview:

This is the latest version of the AWS WAF API, AWS WAF is a web application firewall that lets you monitor the HTTP and HTTPS requests that are forwarded to Amazon CloudFront, an Amazon API Gateway API, or an Application Load Balancer. AWS WAF also lets you control access to your content. Based on conditions that you specify, such as the IP addresses that requests originate from or the values of query strings, API Gateway, CloudFront, or the Application Load Balancer responds to requests either with the requested content or with an HTTP 403 status code (Forbidden). You also can configure CloudFront to return a custom error page when a request is blocked.

Really looking forward to this! :)

The WAFv2 CFN spec is very complex and error-prone for somebody new to it, especially compared to the clean web UI.

@SomayaB, working on an L2 construct for this as part of another project. Happy to contribute back to the main branch if no-one else is working this.

That would be amazing @NukaCody! Go right ahead, no one is working on an L2 for this service on our side.
