I'm biased but for local development, I prefer to emulate the least amount of AWS services. You don't have to deal with any gotchas while going to prod.

Some background, with SST we connect your local environment to the services deployed to AWS and just run the Lambda functions locally: https://docs.sst.dev/live-lambda-development

If you are looking for a guide on building full-stack apps on AWS, check out: https://serverless-stack.com/guide.html

It covers a small subset of AWS services but it is very comprehensive in what it covers.

Yeah I'm going to send this to the Netlify support. Thanks for the details!

Wow that antivirus warning on the docs is super weird. It's just a very simple docs site deployed through Netlify. Can you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing? I'll need to dig into it: jay@serverless-stack.com

Yeah it's a bit of a legacy name from our guide at Serverless-Stack.com but we've got some changes planned!

Sorry to hear that you've had some bad experiences with SST. Recently we shipped some updates to fix the CPU issues with apps that have a large number of functions. The missing breakpoints I think is related as well.

That said though, we often work with teams in our Slack to get their setup working well. If you haven't, I'd recommend popping in and posting about it. Or just send me an email: jay@serverless-stack.com and we'll figure it out.

If you are using CDK then check out SST: https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack

It's based on CDK and has a great local development environment for Lambda. It allows you to set breakpoints and test it locally: https://serverless-stack.com/examples/how-to-debug-lambda-fu...

jayair — Tue, 12 Oct 2021 12:48:49 +0000

Yup it's meant to be a starting point for projects of all sizes. We built our own stuff using it as well. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Or join us on Slack: https://launchpass.com/serverless-stack

Good luck!

New comment by jayair in "Show HN: Deploy Next.js to AWS"

jayair — Wed, 22 Sep 2021 18:11:20 +0000

Yeah exactly, it builds on parts of serverless-nextjs.

It's pretty much to run it on serverless infrastructure as opposed to on containers. And to take advantage of Lambda@Edge.

Show HN: Deploy Next.js to AWS

jayair — Wed, 22 Sep 2021 13:35:30 +0000

Hi HN, we are Frank and Jay and we are working on a better way to deploy Next.js apps to AWS: https://serverless-stack.com/examples/how-to-create-a-nextjs-app-with-serverless.html

We are the founders of SST, an open source framework that makes it easy to build serverless apps on AWS: https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack

We found that many people in the community were looking for a better way to deploy Next.js apps to their own infrastructure and they were unhappy with the options. These were not easy to customize (Amplify Next.js) or would pass your code and credentials via a 3rd party service (Serverless Next.js component). So we decided to fix it.

There are a couple of things to note, specifically the AWS integration.

- Completely open source and free

- Deploys directly to your AWS account

- Import environment variables from your AWS services

- Easily manage permissions to your AWS resources

- Works with any CI service, supports PR/preview deployments

- Uses AWS CDK to define your infrastructure as code

We wrote about how to get started and compared the various deployment options: https://serverless-stack.com/examples/how-to-create-a-nextjs-app-with-serverless.html. You can also check out the docs: https://docs.serverless-stack.com/constructs/NextjsSite

We'd appreciate if you took it for a spin and gave us some feedback!

jayair — Tue, 07 Sep 2021 13:47:10 +0000

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.
