My main use case for LocalStack is for tests on my machine. For example, when I want to create a table in AWS, I create a LocalStack and use it in my tests before I publish the Terraform. I also create my application container and create the tables in LocalStack for running all my tests. I use not only tables, but also SQS and SNS. I only have features that I use to add about my main use case for LocalStack, to be honest.

The main use case for LocalStack was about simulation in order to have a low impact on costs for our AWS environments.

My main use case for LocalStack is to run AWS services locally on our machines, such as running on our laptop or on our server, and for a sandbox for testing our cloud apps. A quick, specific example of how I use LocalStack for testing my cloud apps is that we use LocalStack for a sandbox or staging environment for AWS resources. We test it on LocalStack, and if everything works well, then we deploy it to AWS.
