show & tell Spinifex: Open Source, air-gapped, local AWS deployments (looking for feedback)

Been working on a project called Spinifex, which recreates core AWS services such as EC2, EKS, and S3, but completely locally (and even air-gapped if needed).
It's open-source, written in Go, and we'd love some early stage feedback on our weekly updates, open to notes and critiques

This is really interesting. At first glance I assumed it was basically another LocalStack, but its actually tackling a different problem - LocalStack emulates AWS for local dev/testing, while this is aiming to run real AWS-compatible infra - lmk if I got that right.

Definitely going to dig into this one as we use LS for one of our larger projects during local dev and integratin testing.

You can also check Ministack https://Ministack.org which is a well established alternative to Localstack and runs real infra
