Ministack: open-source local AWS emulator runs 60+ services on one port, free LocalStack alternative
tom_doerr · x · 2026-10-07
Ministack, a new MIT-licensed open-source project (4.8k GitHub stars), emulates 60+ AWS services locally on a single port as a free alternative to LocalStack. Its standout feature is real infrastructure support for RDS and Bedrock rather than pure mocks, plus Terraform compatibility — a notable cost-saving option for local AWS development and testing.
