LocalStack’s core cloud emulator allows us to run our own cloud application - including its infrastructure - locally, which provides an efficient developer experience at the start of the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). This experience enables us to build our product features in a way that closely matches what our customers are looking for — a comprehensive developer platform that facilitates local multi-cloud development across different providers and services.In this session from LocalStack Community Meetup April '24, Lukas Pichler showcases how to use the LocalStack core cloud emulator and other novel solutions, to build, test, and integrate new features in our LocalStack Web Application. He broadly discusses:• Application Overview• How do we enable local cloud development?How do we use LocalStack in CI?• How do we use LocalStack to enable application previews and E2E testing?• Conclusion

Looking to bring AWS emulation directly into your CI/CD pipelines? This hands-on session with Harsh Mishra shows you how to integrate LocalStack with Dagger to level up your development workflows.In this session, you'll learn how to:- Run full AWS emulation locally inside Dagger pipelines- Spin up LocalStack as a service using Dagger’s composable syntax- Use Cloud Pods for persistent state across pipeline runs- Create ephemeral environments for fast, clean, isolated testingKeep your cloud workflows repeatable, testable, and fastWhether you’re building serverless apps, managing infrastructure-as-code, or optimizing your DevOps pipelines, this talk will help you bring LocalStack into the heart of your CI/CD setup.

LocalStack's Docker Extension allows developers to manage and run cloud applications locally within Docker Desktop efficiently. With a fully-integrated experience with features such as configuration profiles, container logs, and more, developers can now easily manage their LocalStack instance.In this video, Harsh from LocalStack discusses the LocalStack Docker Extension and how you can capitalize on an intuitive user experience to manage your LocalStack image, configuration profiles, and container logs directly within the Docker Desktop.

This is where it all comes together.CI/CD lets dev teams ship code automatically — but only if your pipeline is built to handle the cloud.In this episode, I show you how local testing + automated deployment = cloud apps that ship faster, safer, and smarter.Stick around to the end, this is the final episode of WTH is the Cloud?!
