SST (Serverless Stack) provides the best developer experience for building full-stack apps on AWS. Live Lambda development, Ion v3 with Pulumi, and multi-cloud support.
Reviewer scorecard
“The API is clean, the React Email integration is brilliant, and deliverability is excellent. Replaced SendGrid in 20 minutes and never looked back.”
“The best way to use AWS. Live Lambda debugging, simple configuration, and the migration to Ion (Pulumi-based) is smart.”
“Young company with a smaller scale than SendGrid or Postmark. But the developer experience is so much better that it's worth the risk for startups. Monitor deliverability closely.”
“Makes AWS approachable for full-stack developers. The DX gap between SST and raw CDK is enormous.”
“Building beautiful transactional emails used to be painful. React Email components make it feel like building a web page. Game changer for my client projects.”
“SST proves AWS can have great DX. Ion's Pulumi-based multi-cloud approach positions it for the future.”
