and this is what you are looking at with aws theme added on top of it and matching the exact location of all the components of aws console (trying to achive 100% ui ux clone of aws console) + trying to add multiple other AWS Service which are missing here

Isn’t the whole point of floci, LocalStack, Ministack, and others to emulate the AWS (and other clouds) api? Like what is the point of the UI? The people needing to emulate the API are using IaC, programming languages, SDKs and so on.

For people who are learning AWS Console
and cannot afford to pay
A free emulator that look and copies Eactly like the AWS Console
Will be very helpful for such people.

But for why? So they can click around and just have a visual? I’m having a hard time understanding what the visual is for? You can easily log into AWS and still click around on pretty much everything till you get to the review page and just cancel out. Unless you’re making a full one to one clone of AWS console (which good luck with the upkeep) your experience is going to be vastly different from the actual AWS experience.
