FAQ
But... Why?
We love Localstack, and we love AWS.
However, Localstack is a great way to mock the AWS cloud for Local Development or in CI/CD. But, to run it, you need a Laptop with enough available memory, Docker, Python, and other CLIs.
Alternatively, if you want to develop locally with an AWS account, you'll have to sign up for an account. But then, resources get created and never deleted potentially leading to an expensive bill.
Our "Localstack as a service" gives you a hosted and personalized URL and makes running Localstack as easy as
running localstack start
, with no prerequisties, such as Docker or Python.
Then with it automatically terminating/expiring, any mess made is automatically cleaned up.
What Localstack services work with this?
We've run the integration tests for Localstack on our Hosted Localstack. So theoretically if it works on Localstack on your laptop, it will work here, too.
For reference, Localstack maintains a feature parity matrix.
If you find something doesn't work as expected, let us know
Does anything save when my stack expires?
No. Each launch is a clean launch.
However, if persistence is important to you, let us know.
Is Localstack all eph.dev can launch?
For now, yes. But if this is little experiment successful, we'd love to hear suggestions on other stacks to run.
Reach out to us on Gitter.
How the %$!# do I pronounce eph.dev?
"F dot Dev", it's short for "Ephemeral Development". Catchy, right?
