Overview
LocalStack’s developer tools build upon the emulator by providing additional ways for developers to increase their velocity. They go beyond running cloud services locally, helping you start and manage LocalStack, inspect what your application is doing, manage state, test resilience and security, and replicate resources from real AWS environments.
In this documentation, developers will be shown how they can incorporate these tools into their day to day development activities.
App Inspector
App Inspector is a LocalStack tool designed to enhance system observability by enabling users to view, collect, and inspect data exchanges, including event payloads and metadata, between AWS services.
AWS Replicator
AWS Replicator makes it easier to use LocalStack in shared AWS environments by copying resources into LocalStack.
Chaos Engineering
Chaos Engineering with LocalStack enables you to build resilient systems early on in the development phase.
Cloud Sandbox
You can run a LocalStack instance as a Cloud Sandbox and access it from your local machine.
Lambda Tools
Develop your Lambdas more efficiently.
Running LocalStack
Tools for starting, stopping, and managing your LocalStack emulator.
Security Testing
