What do Champions do?

LocalStack Champions are community-driven developers dedicated to sharing their work and helping peers succeed. The program highlights builders who learn in public and support the ecosystem through the following activities

Build and Experiment

Help the community by contributing sample applications, templates, or open-source GitHub repositories. Providing real-world code examples is one of the best ways to show other developers what’s possible.

Create content

Share your knowledge by writing blog posts, recording video tutorials, or building step-by-step demos. We ask that Champions publish at least two pieces of LocalStack-related content annually to help others learn.

Shape the Product

Because you use LocalStack in real projects, your insights are invaluable. You’ll have a direct line to our team to share thoughtful feedback on upcoming features and influence the platform's future.

Represent LocalStack

Take your passion to the stage! Champions are encouraged to occasionally share their expertise by speaking at local meetups, industry conferences, or virtual online events.

Connect and Collaborate

Be an active, helpful voice in our ecosystem. Whether you're answering questions on Slack, participating in GitHub discussions, or connecting with peers, your guidance makes a huge impact.
