AWS announces the public preview of AWS Blocks, an open-source TypeScript framework for building application backends on AWS without requiring infrastructure knowledge.

  • Run fully functional local environment with Postgres, authentication, and real-time messaging without AWS account
  • Deploy identical application code to production AWS services with zero changes
  • Add database tables, authentication, AI agents, file uploads, and background jobs in single session
  • End-to-end type safety from data schema to frontend without code generation
  • Supports SPAs (Vite + React) and SSR frameworks (Next.js, Nuxt, Astro)
  • Available at no additional charge; pay only for AWS services used
  • Deploys to all commercial AWS regions

AWS Blocks simplifies backend development by eliminating infrastructure complexity while maintaining production-ready capabilities.
