AWS CloudShell Basics
Explore AWS CloudShell, a browser-based command-line interface that offers a ready-to-use environment with preinstalled AWS CLI and SDKs. Understand how it simplifies AWS development across devices by removing setup, managing credentials automatically, and providing persistent storage, making it ideal for rapid development, troubleshooting, and onboarding.
Imagine we’re in a shared development environment or working across multiple devices. Installing and managing the AWS CLI across them could quickly become tedious and error-prone. That’s where AWS CloudShell excels. It gives us a ready-to-use command-line interface directly from the AWS Management Console, complete with the AWS CLI, SDKs, and installed development tools. Configuring AWS credentials is unnecessary before making calls to the AWS resources.
