AWS Blocks: Full-Stack Building Blocks That Run Locally Without an AWS Account

Short summary

AWS Blocks lets developers build and test serverless applications locally without needing AWS credentials, then deploy identical code to production with a single command. It provides 20+ infrastructure building blocks that run as local files or in-memory services, eliminating multi-day sandbox approval delays and environment configuration drift. New team members can clone the repo, run npm run dev, and ship features in minutes without ever needing AWS access.

  • Develop serverless apps locally without AWS credentials or sandbox approvals
  • 20+ infrastructure blocks (DynamoDB, Lambda, Cognito, etc.) run locally then deploy to production unchanged
  • Instant onboarding: clone repo, npm run dev, ship features—no AWS account required
