What we’re about
LocalStack Community features virtual speaker sessions in and around LocalStack, local cloud development, AWS, DevOps toolings, Snowflake and more! We connect technology professionals in the Cloud & DevOps space and discuss best practices, new tools & technologies, pitfalls, and more while striving to help developers build & test their cloud-native applications.
About LocalStack
LocalStack is a cloud development platform, focused on providing a better way to develop and test your cloud applications. LocalStack facilitates cloud application development on your local machine and across CI/CD by spinning up a local "cloud sandbox" that provides the same APIs and functionality as the real AWS and Snowflake cloud environments.
Speak at LocalStack Community Events
We seek virtual speakers and topics for our Community Events to build our meetup calendar. We are not just limited to LocalStack — Talks around AWS, Developer Productivity, Cloud Security, DevOps toolings, Development & Testing loops, Snowflake and more would add great value to our members.

See all- Smarter Serverless Dev with LocalStack: VS Code Toolkit & Lambda DebuggingLink visible for attendees
Join our September meetup to learn how to supercharge your serverless development workflow using the AWS Toolkit for VS Code with LocalStack.
Joel Scheuner will walk you through how the toolkit integrates seamlessly with LocalStack to enable faster, smarter Lambda development and debugging — all without needing a live AWS account. You’ll see how to:
- Configure the AWS Toolkit for VS Code to connect with LocalStack
- Deploy and test Lambda functions locally with full AWS emulation
- Set breakpoints and debug functions directly from your IDE
- Iterate quickly on serverless code with minimal setup overhead
Through live demos, you’ll gain a practical understanding of how LocalStack turns VS Code into a powerful environment for developing, testing, and debugging AWS serverless applications, entirely from your laptop.
We’ll also be joined by an AWS engineer who will share their experience and insights from the field.
Whether you’re a serverless beginner or an experienced AWS developer, this session will give you the tools to code with confidence and streamline your Lambda workflows.
