'Best' way to create an alpha module in aws-cdk?

[mrpackethead]

After reading the contributing.md docs, along side some other information, about how to go about starting to build a new alpha module, I came up with this method, which essentially was copying the 'example-construct-library' to a new location with a new name and editing its README and package.json.. For example if i was going to create a something for the imaginery 'reddog' service, i would do this.

This assumes that i've already done a full build on cdk.

[mde-user@ip-10-6-115-24 aws-cdk]$ cp -R ./packages/@aws-cdk/example-construct-library/ ./packages/@aws-cdk/aws-reddog-alpha

[mde-user@ip-10-6-115-24 aws-cdk]$ cd ./packages/@aws-cdk/aws-reddog-alpha

edit package.json keys


"name":  "@aws-cdk/aws-reddog-alpha"
"repository": "packages/@aws-cdk/aws-reddog-alpha",
"jssi": {
   "targets": {
      "java": {
        "package": "software.amazon.awscdk.services.reddog.alpha",
        "maven": {
          "groupId": "software.amazon.awscdk",
          "artifactId": "reddog-alpha"
        }
      },
      "dotnet": {
        "namespace": "Amazon.CDK.AWS.Reddog.Alpha",
        "packageId": "Amazon.CDK.AWS.Reddog.Alpha",
        "iconUrl": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aws/aws-cdk/main/logo/default-256-dark.png"
      },
      "python": {
        "distName": "aws-cdk.aws-reddog-alpha",
        "module": "aws_cdk.aws_reddog_alpha",
        "classifiers": [
          "Framework :: AWS CDK",
          "Framework :: AWS CDK :: 2"
        ]
      }
    }
      
 
yarn install
NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=8192 yarn build

The build, just built out my new module.

Is there a better way? This seems to work, but I'm not sure if this is a great idea.
