  3. sst

    Build full-stack apps on your own infrastructure.

    For a more full-featured serverless setup, you can check out SST: https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack

    It runs on your AWS account and it comes with a local development environment (https://docs.serverless-stack.com/live-lambda-development) as well.

  4. webiny-js

    Open-source serverless enterprise CMS. Includes a headless CMS, page builder, form builder, and file manager. Easy to customize and expand. Deploys to AWS.

    Maybe Webiny (https://www.webiny.com, https://www.webiny.com/docs) could be the solution you're looking for! ;)

    It's designed to make serverless application development as easy as possible.

    For example, with the built-in scaffolds (https://www.webiny.com/docs/how-to-guides/scaffolding/introd...), you can pretty quickly provision a new React application, GraphQL API, or even a full-stack application. Once that's up, further development is as easy as simply starting the "webiny watch" command (https://www.webiny.com/docs/how-to-guides/use-watch-command/). It will make sure that all of the changes that you perform, both on application and cloud infrastructure code, are automatically deployed into the cloud for you. In a way, this mimics the good-old local development experience.

    And there's a lot more, but I'd probably pollute the thread. :)

    If you're interested, feel free to ping me, I'd be glad to assist with any questions / feedback you might have.
