Aws Blocks

This covers AWS Blocks, an infrastructure-from-code framework that bundles CDK, SDK, and local mocks into a single API. You define your entire backend in one aws-blocks directory, and the frontend gets fully typed imports without code generation. It ships with 18+ building blocks for storage, auth, realtime, background jobs, and more, all of which run locally without AWS credentials. The skill guides you through scaffolding projects, picking the right building blocks like KVStore or AuthCognito, and deploying with least-privilege credentials. One thing to note: API methods are unauthenticated by default, so you need to explicitly call requireAuth on anything that shouldn't be public. Good fit if you want fast local development with a clear path to production AWS infrastructure.
