Utilities and constructs for the AWS CDK.

## Features

- Create IPv6 CIDRs and routes for subnets in a VPC with the `CidrContext` construct.

- Set the `AssignIpv6AddressOnCreation` property of subnets in a VPC with the `AssignOnLaunch` construct.

- Properly encrypt a CloudWatch Log group with a KMS key and provision IAM permissions with the `EncryptedLogGroup` construct.

- Represent a deployment tier with the `Tier` class.

- Create a subclass of the `Workload` construct to contain your `Stack`s, and optionally load context values from a JSON file you specify.

## The Name

It's a pun. In English, the pronunciation of the acronym _CDK_ sounds a bit like the phrase _seedy cay_. A seedy cay might also be called a _shady island_.
