LocalStack sessions

Develop against a local cloud with the same workflow you use for real ones — a LocalStack session is just another row in the list.

Set up

  1. 01Have LocalStack running (by default on localhost:4566).
  2. 02Create a LocalStack session in Assume and start it — test credentials are written instantly, no sign-in required.

Use it

Point your AWS tooling at the LocalStack endpoint and work as usual:

Terminal
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:4566 s3 mb s3://scratch
aws --endpoint-url http://localhost:4566 s3 ls

Because it's a normal session, switching between LocalStack and a real account is one click each way.
